"Sec. 8-20. When special assessments due: collection
The special assessment is due and payable not later
than January first of each year and shall become delin-
quent as of April first of each calendar year. Any time
after January second of any service year, if the annual
special assessment has not been paid, the special assess-
ment shall continue as a lien if the district shall cause
to be filed in the office of the clerk of the circuit
court of Monroe County a notice of lien showing a legal
description of the real property against which the lien
is claimed, the property location by street and number,
the name of the owner as reflected by the records of
the county and an accurate statement of the total amount
of unpaid and delinquent special assessment claimed to
be due. However, prior to said lien, the district may
first remind the property owner of his delinquency; but
such a reminder notice is not mandatory upon the district.
-2-
A copy of such notice of lien shall also be mailed
to the owner of the property involved as shown by
the records of the county. Such notice of lien shall
be filed in the official records maintained by the
clerk of the circuit court for such purpose. Such
liens, if filed, may be discharged and satisfied by
payment to the district of the aggregate amount speci-
fied in the lien, together with interest thereon from
the date the assessment became delinquent to the pay-
ment date with interest computed at the rate of twelve
(12) percent per annum, together with an additional
sum of fifteen dollars ($15.00) for abstracting and
recording cost, if any. When such lien has been fully
paid or discharged, the district shall promptly cause
evidence of the satisfaction or discharge of such lien
to be entered in the official records. Any person,
firm, corporate or legal entity, other than the pre-
sent owner of the property involved, who pays any such
lien shall be entitled to receive an assignment of the
lien held by the district and shall be subrogated to
the rights of the district in respect of the enforce-
ment of such lien. Delinquent special assessments after
recordation of the lien may be collected by appropriate
civil action; and in addition to the collection of the
lien, interest as called for in the ordinance shall be
collected, together with attorneys' fees and costs for
collection of same."

with this Ordinance are hereby repealed to the extent of said con-
flict.
