SECTION 8795-8805
8795. Whenever any tract of land upon which an assessment has been made, including assessments which have been bonded under and pursuant to the provisions of Part 5 of this division, is subdivided into smaller parcels, the board shall at any time, after the list has been certified by the secretary of the board to be correct and deposited as provided in this chapter, reapportion the assessment or assessments upon the tract, including assessments or portions thereof which have become delinquent together with the delinquencies thereon including penalties and interest. 8796. Assessments and delinquencies on tracts of land which have become delinquent and which have been sold for delinquency pursuant to the provisions of this part and of Part 5 of this division, or either, and which have been subdivided, shall be reapportioned in the same manner and with the same effect as if the tract had not been so sold. 8797. Whenever application is made to the board for reapportionment, the board shall reapportion the assessment upon the tract or tracts in such manner as in their judgment will charge each of the smaller tracts with a just proportion of the assessment made upon the tract so subdivided, and with a just proportion of the delinquencies. 8798. Before the reapportionment becomes final, the board shall appoint a time when it will meet for the purpose of hearing objections to the reapportionment. 8799. Notice of the hearing shall be given by publication for two weeks in some newspaper of general circulation published in the county in which the land or some portion thereof is situated. 8800. The notice need not describe the land with particularity, but it is sufficient to describe the tract or tracts of land subdivided as a tract or tracts assessed to the owner or owners giving his name or other names upon the assessment list. 8801. As many tracts may be embraced in one application as applicant is the owner of, or interested in. 8802. At the time appointed, or such other time to which the hearing may be postponed, or which may be appointed by the board, the board shall hear any objections to the reapportionment and shall approve, modify, or alter the reapportionment in such manner as in their judgment will charge each of the smaller parcels with a just proportion of the assessment made upon the tract subdivided and shall enter an order on its minutes accordingly. 8803. When the reapportionment has been made by the board, it shall deposit, in the office of the county treasurer of the county in which the land is situated, a list or lists of the charges assessed against each of the parcels, and the lists, after filing, shall have the same effect as an original assessment. 8804. The filing of the lists shall be conclusive evidence that the requisite notice has been given, and that all acts required to be done before the filing of the lists have been duly done and performed, and the decision of the board is final and conclusive. 8805. The expenses of publication and such other expenses as the board may order shall be borne and paid by the applicant.
