Any property taxes still delinquent may be sold at our annual Tax Sale held in May.
The Tax Sale is held online and can be accessed at www.civicsource.com. Any property with taxes that are still unpaid will be sold to Tax Sale Buyers. Properties going to this sale will be advertised in the official parish newspaper in April and May. The actual Tax Sale is generally held in May. The purpose of the Tax Sale is to collect the delinquent property taxes due the parish.
The original owner has three (3) years to “redeem” the property from the date the deed is filed in the Clerk of Court’s Office. A redemption is calculated by the Tax Collector. The amounts of the redemption will include a redemption fee, a tax sale fee, interest due the Tax Sale Buyer, the base taxes and monthly interest.
You must contact the Bossier Parish Tax Assessor’s Office at (318) 965-2213.
The Bossier Sheriff's Posse
Posse & Auxiliary
The Bossier Sheriff's Posse is an invaluable asset in helping your deputies to serve and protect the people of Bossier Parish. Although Posse members perform no direct enforcement duties, they provide additional eyes and ears, and their visibility in marked patrol units helps prevent crime.
The 270 posse volunteers are men and women over 50, many retired military, who are in uniform and ride in patrol units that are indistinguishable from the sworn deputies' patrol units. Posse members are trained in CPR, reporting accidents, crime scene preservation, home vacation checks and directing traffic at accident scenes.
