“IMPROV ” stands for whether or not the real estate parcel had an “improvement” (i.e., a structure) situated on it at the time it was sold. “1 ” indicates that a structure existed when the parcel was sold and “0 ” indicates that the parcel was an empty, piece of land.
“APPLICANT ” is the individual(s) or active business entity that submitted an Application to Purchase the real estate parcel and whose application was presented to and approved by the LBA’s Board of Directors.
