The municipal clerk, promptly after the date of maturity of any installment and interest and no earlier than the first day of July and no later than the tenth day of July in each year, shall certify the installment and interest then due to the county treasurer of the county in which the assessed property is located.

The county treasurer shall place the installment and interest upon the November delinquent tax list of the same year which is prepared by the county treasurer, and collect the installment and interest as other delinquent taxes are collected.

The county treasurer shall collect the installments of assessment, together with interest and penalty, as certified to him by the municipal clerk, but any taxpayer shall have a right to pay his ad valorem taxes to the county treasurer regardless of the delinquency of such assessments.
