The clerk shall cause notice of the filing of said report and of a time and place of hearing thereon to be published pursuant to Section 6066 of the Government Code prior to the date set for hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published within the entity if there is one and if not then in such paper printed and published in the county within which the greater part of such district is located.
Before any entity may have such charges collected on the tax roll for the first time following the effective date of this section, the clerk shall cause a notice in writing of the filing of said report proposing to have such charges for the forthcoming fiscal year collected on the tax roll and of the time and place of hearing thereon, to be mailed to each person to whom any parcel or parcels of real property described in said report is assessed in the last equalized assessment roll available on the date said report is prepared, at the address shown on said assessment roll or as known to said clerk. If the legislative body adopts the report, then the requirements for notice in writing to the persons to whom parcels of real property are assessed shall not apply to hearings on reports prepared in subsequent fiscal years but notice by publication as herein provided shall be adequate.
