79-2804i. Purchase by city of property offered for sale under 79-2804. Cities are hereby granted the authority to buy real estate offered for sale pursuant to K.S.A. 79-2804 if special assessments have been levied by the city on such real estate and remain due and unpaid at the time of such sale. Such authority shall be exercised by a representative of the city, as authorized and directed by the governing body thereof, who may bid at such sale an amount equal to any other bid received not to exceed the amount of the judgment lien, including the unpaid special assessments levied by the city, and interest thereon as provided by law plus the cost, charges and expenses of the proceedings and sale as set forth in the execution of order of sale. If the city is the successful bidder, it shall be required to pay the delinquent real estate taxes plus the costs and expenses of sale, but shall not be required to pay any delinquent special assessments which are a result of improvements made or work done by or on behalf of the city or any interest and penalties on said delinquent special assessments.
