assessment roll, a brief description of the property for which or in
connection with which such solid waste services were provided, and the
name and address of the person or corporation liable to pay such amount.

and such board shall levy such amounts remaining unpaid on the date
taxes are levied against the real property for which or in connection
with which such solid waste services were provided.
