Any assessment against lands described in § 46A-10A-56 for construction of a drainage project shall be certified by the county auditor of the county in which the project is located to the board or officer having charge of the lands. If sufficient funds are under control of the officer or board from which payment of the assessment can be made, it shall be made. If sufficient funds are not available, the officer or board shall approve the assessment and certify it to the state auditor, who shall pay the assessment from money available for that purpose. If no money is available, the state auditor shall request the Legislature to provide an appropriation for payment of the assessment. The payment shall be made to the treasurer of the county in which the lands are located. No penalty other than interest may attach to any such land after an assessment becomes delinquent and the land may not be sold to enforce delinquent assessments.
