§ 14-1416 Apportionment of local assessment. If the whole or any part of the expense of constructing a sewerage system is to be assessed upon the lands benefited, the board of sewer commissioners shall prepare and file in the office of the village clerk a map and plan of the proposed area of local assessment. Such expense shall thereupon be apportioned upon the lands within such area in proportion as nearly as may be to the benefit which each lot or parcel will derive therefrom, and the ratio of such benefit shall be established. After making such apportionment the board shall serve upon each land owner a notice thereof and of the filing of such map and plan, and that at a specified time and place a hearing will be had to consider and review the same. The board shall meet at the time and place specified and hear objections to such apportionment. It may modify and correct the same, or exclude land from the area of local assessment. The board of sewer commissioners, upon the completion of such apportionment, shall file the same in the office of the village clerk. The apportionment shall be deemed final and conclusive, unless an appeal be taken therefrom within fifteen days after the filing thereof.
