§ 37-4-107 — Hearing on appraisals

Any property owner may accept the
appraisals in his favor of benefits and of damages and of lands to be taken, as made
by the appraisers, or may acquiesce in their failure to appraise damages in his favor,
and shall be construed to have done so unless, within ten days after the last
publication provided for in section 37-4-106, he has filed exceptions to said report
or to any appraisal of either benefits or of damages, or of the value of land to be
taken. All exceptions shall be heard by the court beginning not less than twenty nor
more than thirty days after the last publication provided for in section 37-4-106 and
determined in advance of other business so as to carry out, liberally, the purposes
and needs of the district. The court may, if it deems necessary, return the report to
the board of appraisers for their further consideration and amendment and may
enter its order to that effect. If, however, the appraisal roll as a whole is referred
back to the appraisers, the court shall not resume the hearing thereon without new
notice, as for an original hearing thereon. But the court may, without new notice,
order the appraisers to revise and amend the roll when the order of the court
specifies the changes to be made.
