Sec. 13. (a) The benefit assessments are due and payable to the fiscal officer or county treasurer from the time of the preparation or delivery of the assessment duplicate.
(c) If the person against whom the assessment is made is a resident of the municipality, demand for payment must be made by delivering to the person personally, or leaving at the person’s last or usual place of residence, a notice of the assessment and demand for payment.
(b) If an assessment is not paid within sixty (60) days, the municipality, by its attorney, shall proceed to foreclose the liens as mortgages are foreclosed, with similar rights of redemption, and have the property sold to pay the assessments. The municipality may recover costs, with reasonable attorney’s fees, and interest from the expiration of the sixty (60) days allowed for payment, at the rate of six percent (6%) per year.
