register -- Copies to counties in district.
(1)
As soon as the board has adopted the resolution relative to the issue of bonds, the
secretary shall prepare a district assessment register in a well-bound book and as
many copies thereof as there are counties in which any part of the district is located.
This register shall contain the name of the owner of each piece of property found in
the report of the appraisers in the assessment of benefits, a description of the
property assessed, as modified, the minimum district assessment, the interest district
assessment and the annual installment to be paid each year for the time the bonds
are to run, except when the minimum district assessment has been previously paid.
(2) The district assessment register shall be in substantially the following form:
"The district assessment register of __________ district, in the County (Counties)
of __________, Kentucky. Whereas the __________ district, located in the County
(Counties) of __________ in the State of Kentucky, was duly established by the orders of
the __________ County, and thereafter the plan for reclamation of the district and the
report of the appraisers, containing the assessment of benefits and damages, were
approved, and the proceedings referred to the board of __________ County, to cause such
improvements to be made, and to levy an assessment upon the property in that district to
pay for them, to issue bonds and cause the assessment to be collected, and whereas said
board after ascertaining the cost of the improvements, did levy a district minimum
assessment and a district interest assessment, and apportion them to the property in the
district according to the ratio of benefits, which was also corrected and approved, the
board now certifies that the following is a true and correct table of assessments so levied
upon, and to be paid on each piece of property, together with the annual installments
thereof, which shall become due and payable at the same time and place, and collectible
by the same person and in the same manner that state and county taxes are payable and
collected. This district assessment register is the authority of the tax collector of each
county in which any part of the __________ district is located for demanding and
collecting the assessments.

paid on the blank space on the assessment sheet.

a copy to the county clerk in each county where any part of the district is located
