Alturas Fire Department Suspends Outdoor Burning Due to High Fire Danger
The Alturas Fire Department has suspended all outdoor burning within city limits beginning at 12:01 a.m. Friday, May 22, citing elevated wildfire danger, dry vegetation and worsening weather conditions.
The citywide burn suspension applies to residential burn piles, yard debris burning, agricultural burning within city limits and any outdoor burning not specifically exempted by law, according to a public notice issued by the department.
Fire officials said the temporary ban is intended to help protect lives, property and natural resources as Northern California enters a period of increased wildfire risk.
The Fire Marshal’s Office is also conducting fire hazard inspections throughout
Alturas. Residents are being asked to clear potential fire hazards from their properties, including dry grass, weeds, excessive vegetation, combustible debris and improperly stored flammable materials.
Officials encouraged homeowners to maintain defensible space around homes and other structures to reduce the risk of wildfire spread within the community.
The department also urged residents to use caution with activities that could ignite sparks or fires, including operating equipment in dry vegetation, improperly disposing of smoking materials, using outdoor cooking appliances and parking vehicles in dry grass.
Fire officials said weather and fire conditions can change
rapidly during wildfire season and emphasized that community cooperation is critical to protecting homes, businesses and emergency personnel.

The tax collector’s power to sell will arise unless the property is either redeemed or made subject to an installment plan of redemption initiated as provided by law prior to 5:00 p.m. on June 30, 2026. The right to an installment plan terminates at 5:00 p.m. on June 30, 2026, and after that date, the entire balance due must be paid in full to prevent sale at public auction.
The right of redemption survives the property becoming subject to the power to sell, but it terminates at 5:00 p.m. on the last business day prior to the date of the sale by the tax collector.
All information concerning redemption or the initiation of an installment plan of redemption will be furnished, upon request, by Macey VonRader, Modoc County Tax Collector, 204 South Court Street, Alturas, California 96101. Phone number is (530) 233-6223.
The amount to redeem, including all penalties and fees, as of June, 2026 is shown opposite the parcel number and next to the name of the assessee.
PARCEL NUMBERING SYSTEM EXPLANATION
The Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN), when used to describe property in this list, refers to the assessor’s map book, the map page, the block on the map, if applicable, and the individual parcel on the map page or in the block. The assessor’s maps and further explanation of the parcel numbering system are available in the Assessor’s office.

If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call or (888) 902-3989 or visit these internet websites or www.nestortrustee. com, using the file number assigned to this case 202515755-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANTS: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil

Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call or (888) 902-3989 or visit these internet websites or www. nestortrustee.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2025-15755-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or have consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.
