Sec. 22. (a) The drainage commissioners shall, before November 1 of each year, file with the county auditor a certified copy of the resolution fixing the assessment rate.
(b) The county auditor shall do the following:
(1) Prepare an assessment duplicate assessing each tract of land with an amount determined by multiplying the last assessment on the tract of land made and confirmed by the court in the last proceedings to construct or reconstruct the ditch by the assessment rate.
(2) Deliver the assessment duplicate to the county treasurer at the same time the tax duplicates are delivered. However, if the amount to be collected is not greater than fifty cents ($0.50), the county auditor may not deliver the assessment duplicate to the county treasurer to be collected.
(c) The county treasurer shall collect the assessments in the same ways as taxes are collected, except that the whole amount is due and payable and collected at the time of the payment of the spring installment of taxes. All laws concerning the collection of taxes apply to enforce the collection of assessments.
