(2) As soon as practicable after its appointment, and each year thereafter as provided by
ordinance, the board shall develop a plan for economic improvements within the <br>management district and shall prepare an annual detailed budget for the costs of <br>providing economic improvements and shall submit the plan and budget to the <br>legislative body for its approval.
(3) Upon approval of the economic improvement plan and annual budget, the board
shall publish both pursuant to KRS Chapter 424 and shall mail by first class mail to <br>each affected property owner a description of the plan, the fair basis of assessment <br>to be utilized, the estimated cost to the property owner, and the ratio that the cost to <br>each property owner bears to the total cost of the economic improvements.
(4) The ordinance establishing the management district shall provide a procedure for
the annual collection of the assessment for the economic improvements. <br>(a) The board may be directed to annually prepare and mail by first class mail to
an owner of each parcel of real property the annual assessment, and to <br>establish due dates and penalties and interest, if any, for delinquent payment; <br>or
(b) The annual assessment may be collected in the same manner, at the same
times, and by the office authorized by law for the collection and enforcement <br>of general city taxes, in which case the collector of taxes shall make regular <br>remittances of the amounts collected to the board. The penalties and interest <br>for delinquent taxes may be applied to delinquent assessments, or separate <br>penalties and interest may be imposed; however, no discount shall be provided <br>for early payment.
(c) Notwithstanding the method of collection for the assessment that is adopted,
any affected property owner shall be afforded the right to contest the amount <br>of assessment or the inclusion of his property. The contest shall be filed with <br>the board within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the assessment. The property <br>owner shall have the right to appear before the board and present evidence. A <br>record shall be made of the proceedings and the board shall render a written <br>decision. The decision of the board may be appealed to the Circuit Court of <br>the county in which the city is located.
(5) The amount of any outstanding assessment on any property, and accrued interest
and other charges, shall constitute a lien on the property. The lien shall take <br>precedence over all other liens, whether created prior to or subsequent to the <br>assessment, except a lien for state and county taxes, general municipal taxes, and <br>prior improvement assessments, and shall not be defeated or postponed by any <br>private or judicial sale, by any mortgage, or by any error or mistake in the <br>description of the property or in the names of the owners. No error in the
proceedings of the city legislative body or the board shall exempt any property from <br>the lien for the economic improvement assessment, or from payment thereof, or <br>from the penalties or interest thereon, as herein provided.
