• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 58: Townships
• Ch. 58-18: Special Assessments by Township

Text

Any aggrieved freeholder may appeal the special assessment against the freeholder's real
property by providing the township clerk a written notice of appeal, stating the grounds upon
which the appeal is based, within twenty days after the special township meeting. The clerk
shall notify the township board of supervisors of the appeal and schedule a special meeting to
hear the appeals by publishing a notice of the special meeting at least ten days before the
meeting in a legal newspaper published in the township or, if no such newspaper exists, in the
county's official newspaper. Any aggrieved freeholder who submitted an appeal may be heard
and may present reasons to change the freeholder's assessment at the special meeting. The
board of township supervisors may hear the appeals and reasons and may increase or diminish
any of the assessments as it may deem just, providing that the total amount of the assessments
may not be changed and an assessment as adjusted may not exceed the benefits to the parcel
of land on which it is assessed.
