§ 61-35-67 — Lien of special assessment

North Dakota § 61-35-67

• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 61: Waters
• Ch. 61-35: Water Districts

Text

A special assessment imposed by a district, with accrued interest and penalties, is a lien
upon the property on which the assessment is levied from the time the assessment list is
approved by the district board until the assessment is fully paid. The liens have precedence
over all other liens except general tax liens and may not be divested by any judicial sale.
Mistake in the description of the property covered by the special assessment lien or in the name
of the owner of such property does not defeat the lien if the assessed property can be identified
by the description in the assessment list. This chapter must be considered notice to all
subsequent encumbrances of the priority of special assessments imposed under this chapter.
