(2) Pay any deferred installments of local improvement district assessments against such lands, if any; and
(3) Produce, if invested at an annual rate of interest equivalent to the rate of interest established in section 45-103 , a sum of money equal to the annual increase in operation and maintenance costs against remaining lands in the district resulting from the severance from the district of the lands thus acquired by the condemner. For the purposes of determining the amount of such lump-sum payment, the annual maintenance and operation assessment of the district shall be considered to be the average for the ten years, or so many years as the district has assessment experience, if less than ten years, preceding the date of acquisition.
