If a board neglects or refuses in any year to impose assessments pursuant to this part, the board of supervisors of the office county shall, as provided in this article, perform the duties of the board of the district in respect to imposing assessments in the same manner and with the same effect as if those duties were performed by the board. 26501. The applicable part of the equalized county assessment rolls of the affected counties shall be the basis of assessment for the district when its assessments are levied pursuant to this article. 26502. If any land subject to assessment for the purposes of the district does not appear upon a county assessment roll used as the basis of assessment for the district, the land omitted shall be forthwith assessed by the county assessor of the county in which it is situated upon an order of the board of supervisors making the assessment, and a description of the property omitted shall be written in the roll prepared for the district assessments. 26503. The board of supervisors shall meet and equalize each assessment made pursuant to this article with the assessment of other land in the district.
