It sounds like it wasn't intentional. The property was so badly managed that they failed to pay their taxes by accident. They missed the notices because they didn't keep their address up to date with the city.
Still, I don't have much sympathy. You'd think someone at some point in the 30 years they weren't paying taxes would have said, hey, you know, we haven't paid property taxes for the street in quite a while, maybe we should see what's going on with that.
If I had some problem stemming from failing to pay taxes for three decades, I doubt I'd be treated nicely either.
