to read as follows:
(f-1) A [If a county maintains an Internet website, the]

registration. Along with each notice of sale posted under this
subsection, the county must post the following information on the

that if the county assessor-collector permits a person to use a form
prescribed by the comptroller for that purpose, the county
assessor-collector may post a link to the location on the
comptroller's Internet website where the form may be viewed instead
of posting the form.
