41-8-119. Appeal from approval of project or determination of benefits or assessments.
(a) Any owner of land or person having an interest therein upon which an assessment is proposed to be levied may, within thirty (30) days from such order or resolution of the board of directors accepting the report of the appraisers, file with the clerk of the district court a written notice making demand for trial by the court. The notice shall state definitely from what part of such order or resolution the appeal is taken and shall set forth any other objections of the appellant. In case more than one (1) appeal is taken, the court may, upon finding that the appeals may be consolidated without injury to the interests of anyone, consolidate and try the appeals together. Any hearing on appeal provided for herein in the district court shall be de novo, and the district court shall consider not only the question of procedure but also the merits of the point or points appealed from, including but not limited to eminent domain proceedings. Any appeal from a decision of the district court shall follow the usual rules of civil procedure.
(b) If no appeal is taken within the time prescribed in this section from such order or resolution of the board of directors accepting the report of the appraisers, or after the finding of the court in case an appeal is taken from such order or resolution of the board of directors, then such assessments shall be final and conclusive and shall constitute perpetual liens upon the land so assessed until they are fully paid.
