The officer who levies upon personal property, shall, before said officer proceeds to sell the same, cause public notice to be given of the time and place of sale, for at least ten (10) days before the day of sale. The notice shall be given by publication at least once each week for two (2) consecutive weeks in some newspaper meeting the qualifications prescribed by K.S.A. 64-101, or, in the discretion of the court, by putting up advertisements in five (5) public places in the county, one of which shall be on a bulletin board established for public notices in the county courthouse. Within five (5) days of the date of first publication or posting of notice, plaintiff shall send by restricted mail a copy of said notice to the defendant and to those persons known by the plaintiff to have a security interest in the property. Such notice shall be sent to the last known address of the person to whom sent and shall be in compliance with subsection (26) of K.S.A. 84-1-201. If the personal property levied upon cannot be sold at the execution sale for want of bidders, the judgment creditor may direct the officer to return the execution showing that fact or, at such creditor's option, said creditor may report the same to the judge and obtain an order permitting a second sale under the same execution and an extension of the return day of the execution if that be necessary.
