Text

Except where the provisions of section 468.511, providing for vote in proportion to
assessment are invoked, any person or corporation owning land or right-of-way within the
district and assessed for benefits may have the person’s or the corporation’s vote cast by
the person’s or the corporation’s agent or proxy authorized to cast such vote by a power of
attorney signed and acknowledged by such person or corporation, and filed before such vote
is cast in the auditor’s office of the county in which such election is held. Every such power
of attorney shall specify the particular election for which it is to be used, indicating the day,
month, and year of such election, and shall be void for all elections subsequently held. The

is not determined by assessment, may be cast by absent voters ballot in the same manner
and form and subject to the same rights and restrictions as is provided in section 468.511
relating to vote by absentee ballot when votes are determined by assessment.
