If, before the commencement of the public auction, anyone pays the arrears of property taxes payable in respect of a property listed in this Notice and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Town, as of the date of such payment, to collect such arrears, that property may not be offered for sale at the public auction.
Any person who pays the arrears of property taxes payable in respect of a property listed in this Notice and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Town, as of the date of such payment, to collect such arrears, may obtain a lien on that property for the amount paid if the person who pays the same is anyone, other than the assessed owner(s) of the property, that has an interest, estate, encumbrance, or claim registered or filed under the Land Titles Act against that property or the transferee of such a person.

by paying the Town the arrears of property taxes payable in respect of the property and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Town to collect such arrears as of the date of payment. If this happens, the sale of such property cannot be completed and all rights and interests of the purchaser in the property cease.
