184.120 Determination of cost -- Assessment against owners.
When a bid has been accepted and the cost of constructing the road improvement or
the cost of the maintenance has thus been determined, the board of directors shall
prepare a statement of all costs of constructing the project or providing road
maintenance (including the cost of organizing the district, preliminary expenses, fees
of directors, engineer and attorney, and a sum sufficient to provide for any
unforeseen contingencies up to and including the completion of the project, together
with a fund adequate to provide for continuing costs of the district which may include
reasonable maintenance of the roads, drainage, ditches and sidewalks for a period
of ten (10) years) and shall thereupon determine the front-foot cost of constructing
the road improvement or the front-foot cost of providing road maintenance. The
board of directors shall then assess against each owner of the property abutting
upon the road improved or maintained within the limits of the district that proportion
of the cost of constructing the entire improvement or that proportion of the cost of
providing proper maintenance which his front footage abutting upon the road bears
to the total front footage of all properties abutting upon the road within the district. In
determining the total front footage intersection shall be included.
