Official statutory text
(1) Certificate of delinquent taxes by county treasurer. After the taxation district treasurer transfers the tax roll under s. 74.12 or 74.43 , the county treasurer shall prepare a certificate of the amount that is delinquent on real property and the amount that is not delinquent but payable in subsequent installments on real property and the amount of delinquent special assessments, special charges and special taxes.
(2) Endorsement of taxation district treasurer’s bond. After the taxation district treasurer has fulfilled the requirements for settlement with the county under s. 74.25 or 74.30 , the county treasurer if requested to do so, shall endorse the bond of the taxation district treasurer executed under s. 70.67 (1) as satisfied and paid. The endorsement fully discharges the taxation district treasurer and his or her sureties from the obligations of the bond, unless the return of the taxation district treasurer under s. 74.43 is false. If the return is false, the bond continues in force and the taxation district treasurer and his or her sureties are subject to action upon the bond for all deficiencies and damages resulting from the false return.
