                                  TITLE  50
                            MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS
                                  CHAPTER 25
                     UNDERGROUND CONVERSION OF UTILITIES
    50-2512.  NOTICE OF HEARING ON OBJECTIONS TO PROPOSED ASSESSMENTS. After
the preparation of the aforesaid ordinance, notice of a hearing on objections
to the proposed assessments shall be given. Such notice shall be given in the
same manner as provided under section 50-1713, Idaho Code.
    Each notice shall state the time at which the governing body will hear and
consider all objections to the assessment roll by the parties aggrieved by
such assessments. Such notice shall further state that the owner or owners of
any property which is assessed in such assessment roll may file with the clerk
of the governing body his written objections to said assessments and to the
amount levied on any particular lot or parcel in relation to the benefits
accruing thereon and in relation to the proper proportionate share of the
total cost of the improvement. Failure to file a written objection pursuant to
section 50-2517, Idaho Code, shall constitute the grant of an easement for
extension or conversion purposes to the district as provided in said section.
The district after obtaining all easements required for the extension or
conversion project shall, prior to commencement of construction, convey these
easements to the utility. The time within which such objections shall be filed
shall be specified in the notice but in no case shall it be less than fifteen
(15) days from the date of the first publication of such notice.
    The notice shall further state where a copy of the ordinance proposed to
be adopted levying the assessments against all real property in the district
will be on file for public inspection, and that subject to such changes and
corrections therein as may be made by the governing body, it is proposed to
adopt the ordinance at the conclusion of the hearing.
    The published notice shall describe the boundaries or area of the district
with sufficient particularity to permit each owner of real property therein to
ascertain that his property lies in the district. The mailed notice may refer
to the district by name and date of creation and shall state the amount of the
assessment proposed to be levied against the real property of the person to
whom the notice is mailed. In the absence of fraud, the failure to mail any
notice does not invalidate any assessment or any proceeding under this
chapter.
