A.  It shall be the duty of the county assessor to proceed to
extend the tax levies on his tax rolls immediately upon receipt of

the certification of such levies from the county excise board,
without regard to any protest that may be filed against any levy.
B.  It shall further be the duty of the county assessor to
deliver the tax rolls to the county treasurer when the same shall
have been completed, and at the same time to file a true and
correct abstract of such tax rolls with the county clerk, which
abstract shall be made on forms prescribed by and in the manner
required by the State Auditor and Inspector.  The county clerk shall
charge the county treasurer with the amount contained in said
abstract.
C.  If there is any correction or change in the levy of any
municipality, after such levy has been certified by the county
excise board to the county assessor, regardless of whether such
change is made by order of the county excise board or by a court of
competent jurisdiction, it shall be the duty of the county assessor
to deliver the tax rolls to the county treasurer, without regard to
such change; and it shall be the duty of the county treasurer, with
the assistance of the county assessor, to make the necessary
corrections on the tax rolls after the same shall have been
delivered to the county treasurer.
D.  The county assessor shall, notwithstanding the filing of any
protest against the levies or budgets or the pendency of any
procedure with reference to the correctness of the assessment of any
property or as to the legality of any levy, complete the tax rolls
and abstract thereof, and deliver the same to the county treasurer
and county clerk, respectively, on or before the first day of
October of each year.
E.  The county assessor shall attach to the tax rolls his
warrant, under his own hand, requiring the county treasurer to
collect the taxes in accordance with said tax rolls, and such
warrant and tax rolls shall be full and sufficient authority for the
collection by the county treasurer of all taxes therein contained.
No informality in the foregoing requirement shall render illegal any
proceeding for the collection of taxes.
F.  The county treasurer shall accept the tax rolls and give his
receipt therefor; and upon the date fixed when taxes shall become
due and payable to the county treasurer shall proceed to collect the
taxes as provided by law.
