 (from Ch. 34, par. 5-32025)Sec. 5-32025.     Review; effect of judgments.     The  judgments of the court shall be final as to all the issues involved,  and the proceedings in the specified cause shall be subject to review by  appeal as provided in this Division and not otherwise. However,  by mutual consent such a judgment may be vacated or modified  notwithstanding the expiration of 30 days from the rendition of the  judgment, except as provided in this Division.Such judgment shall have the effect of several judgments as to each  tract or parcel of land assessed, and no appeal from any such judgment  shall invalidate or delay the judgments, except as to the property  concerning which the appeal is taken.Such judgment shall be a lien on behalf of the county making any  improvement, for the payment of which the special assessment is levied,  on the property assessed from the date thereof, to the same extent and  of equal force and validity as a lien for the general taxes until the  judgment is paid or the property against which any such judgment is  entered is sold to pay the judgment.Nothing in this Division shall interfere with the right of  the petitioner to dismiss its proceedings, and for that purpose to vacate  such a judgment at its election at any time before commencing the actual  collection of the assessment. The court in which the judgment is  rendered shall enter an order vacating or annulling the judgment of  confirmation on motion of the petitioner entered at any time after the  expiration of 30 days from the rendition of that judgment of  confirmation upon a showing by petitioner that no contract was let or  entered into for the making of the specified improvement within the time  fixed by law for the letting of the contract, or that the making of the  improvement under the original proceeding was never commenced, or that  the making of the improvement under the prior proceeding was never  commenced, or that the making of the improvement under the prior  proceedings was abandoned by petitioner. No judgment entered in such a  proceeding so dismissed and vacated shall be a bar to another like or  different improvement. However, after the contract for the work has been  entered into, or the improvement bonds have been issued, no judgment  shall be vacated or modified or any petitioner dismissed after the  expiration of 30 days from the rendition of the judgment, nor shall the  collection of the assessment be in any way stayed or delayed by the  Committee, or any officer of the county without the consent of the  contractor or bondholder.The county may file a complaint to foreclose the lien of special  assessment in the same manner that foreclosures are permitted by law in  cases of delinquent general taxes. However, no forfeiture of the  property shall be required as a prerequisite for such foreclosure.    (Source: P.A. 86-962.)

 (from Ch. 34, par. 5-32026)Sec. 5-32026.     Supplemental assessment.     At any  time after the bids have been received pursuant to the provisions of this  Division, if it appears to the satisfaction of the Committee that the  first assessment is insufficient to pay the contract price or the bonds or  vouchers issued or to be issued in payment of the contract price, together  with the amount required to pay the accruing interest thereon, the  Committee shall make and file an estimate of the amount of the deficiency.  Thereupon a second or supplemental assessment for the estimated deficiency  of the cost of the work and interest may be made in the same manner as  nearly as may be as in the first assessment, and so on until sufficient  money has been realized to pay for the improvement and the interest. It  shall be no objection to the supplemental assessment that the prior  assessment has been levied, adjudicated and collected unless it appears  that in that prior cause upon proper issue made, it was specially found in  terms, that the property objected for would be benefited by the improvement  no more than the amount assessed against it in that prior proceeding. If  too large a sum is raised at any time, the excess shall be refunded ratably  to those against whom the assessment was made.But if the estimated deficiency exceeds 10% of the original estimate, no  contract shall be awarded until a public hearing has been held on the  supplemental proceeding in like manner as in the original proceedings. No  more than one supplemental assessment shall be levied to meet any  deficiency where the deficiency is caused by the original estimate being  insufficient.However, the petitioner, in case it so elects, may dismiss the petition  and vacate the judgment of confirmation at any time after the judgment of  confirmation is rendered, and begin new proceedings for the same or a  different improvement.

If from any cause any county fails to collect the whole or any portion  of any special assessment which may be levied, which is not cancelled or  set aside by order of any court, for any public improvement authorized to  be made and paid for by a special assessment, the Committee, at any time  within 5 years after the confirmation of the original assessment, may  direct a new assessment to be made upon the delinquent property for the  amount of the deficiency and interest thereon from the date of the original  assessment, which assessment shall be made, as nearly as may be, in the  same manner as is prescribed in this Division for the first assessment. In  all cases where partial payments have been made on such former assessments,  they shall be credited or allowed on the new assessment to the property for  which they were made, so that the assessment shall be equal and impartial  in its results. If this new assessment proves insufficient, either in whole  or in part, the Committee at any time within the specified period of 5  years, may order a third to be levied, and so on in the same manner and for  the same purpose. It shall constitute no legal objections to any new  assessments that the property may have changed hands, or been encumbered  subsequent to the date of the original assessment.
