Upon the filing of the report of the appraisers, the clerk of the court shall give notice thereof, as provided in this act, in each county wherein appraisals of lands reflect benefits thereto. Said notice shall be in the name of the state, directed by name to every person returned by the appraisers as the owner of any lot or parcel of lands affected by the proposed improvement, or of any interest therein, and also generally to all other persons, without mentioning their names, who may own such land or any part thereof or may interest therein notifying them of the filing of the report of the appraisers and that on the day fixed in the notice the court will hear said report and any objections that may be filed thereto and any evidence that may be adduced concerning the same, and requiring the persons so informed, and each of them, on the day fixed for hearing, to appear before the court and show cause, if any they have, why said report should not be confirmed as made or as the court may amend the same, and the improvements and assessments made as therein described or as the report may be amended. Such notice shall contain in appropriate columns, a tabulated description which may be abbreviated as land descriptions usually are abbreviated, of every lot or parcel of land that will be benefited by the proposed improvements, and shall be published as herein provided, the last insertion to be before the day set for the hearing. Where lands in different counties are mentioned in said report, it shall not be necessary to publish a description of all lands in the district in each county, but only of that part of the said lands situate in the county in which publication is made. The day for the hearing on the report of the appraisers, so set, shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days from the first publication of the notice. Provided, that the court shall sit for hearing on appraisals under this section in each of the counties where the lands affected be situated. If the appraisers have prepared an appraisal of damages at the direction of the court, said notice shall include the report of the board of appraisers of their estimates of damages, if any, to be sustained by each property owner as provided in Section 602(b) of this title.
