• Art.: Republican River Water Conservation District

Text

All assessments on account of
special improvements against appraised benefits and interest thereon and
penalties for default of payment thereof, together with the cost of collecting the
same, from the date of the filing of the construction fund and the assessment
record in the office of the treasurer of the county in which the lands and property
are situated, shall constitute a perpetual lien in an amount not in excess of the
benefits severally appraised upon the land and other property against which
assessments have been levied and such benefits appraised. No sale of the property
to enforce any general state, county, city, town, or school tax or other lien shall
extinguish the perpetual lien of the assessment. At any time, a landowner may pay
the full amount of the assessment, and thereafter the property of the landowner
shall be clear and free from lien and shall not be subject to assessment for and on
account of benefits appraised against any other land or default in the payment of
assessments made against any other land.
