If the determination of the board appealed from is affirmed, or if the amount of damages allowed is reduced, the party appealing shall pay all costs and disbursements incurred in the appellate court, but if the amount of damages allowed is increased, or if the determination is altered, modified, or reversed, otherwise than as to the amount of damages, such costs and disbursements must be paid by the township or county, as the case may be. Said costs and disbursements must be taxed as in other cases in the appellate court, and judgment entered therefor in like manner.
