Each of the appraisers shall, before taking up his duties, take and subscribe to an oath that he will faithfully and impartially discharge his duties as an appraiser, and that he will make a true report of the work done by him. The appraisers shall at their first meeting elect one of their own number chairman, and the secretary of the sanitary district or his deputy shall be ex officio secretary of the board of appraisers during its continuance in office. A majority of the board of appraisers constitutes a quorum, and a concurrence of the majority in any matter within the board's duties shall be sufficient for its determination. The appraisers shall continue to hold their offices until excused by the court, and the court shall fill all vacancies in the board of appraisers, or may appoint a new board of appraisers for subsequent appraisals, as occasion requires. A new board of appraisers, if appointed, shall fill all the requirements of the board of appraisers and perform its duties.

2021 Ohio Revised Code|Title 61 | Water Supply-Sanitation-Ditches|Chapter 6115 | Sanitary Districts|Section 6115.40 | Alterations or Additions to Official Plan.

Effective: July 8, 1993|Latest Legislation:  Senate Bill 105 - 120th General Assembly|The board of directors of a sanitary district may at any time, when necessary to fulfill the objects for which the district was created, alter or add to the official plan. When such alterations or additions are formally approved by the board, by the environmental protection agency, and by the court, and are filed with the secretary of the sanitary district, they shall become part of the official plan for all purposes of this chapter. Where such alterations or additions in the judgment of the court neither materially modify the general character of the work, nor materially increase resulting damages for which the board is not able to make amicable settlement, no action other than a resolution of the board and approval by the environmental protection agency is necessary for the approval of such alterations or additions. In case the proposed alterations or additions materially modify the general character of the work or materially modify the resulting damages or materially reduce the benefits, for which the board is not able to make amicable settlement, or materially increase the benefits in such a manner as to require a new appraisal, the court shall direct the board of appraisers of the sanitary district, which may be the original board, or a new board appointed by the court on petition of the board of directors or otherwise, to appraise the property to be taken, benefited, or damaged by the proposed alterations or additions.Upon the completion of the report by the board of appraisers, notice shall be given and a hearing had on its report in the same manner as in the case of the original report of the board of appraisers, and the same right of appeal to a jury exists. Where few landowners are affected, the clerk of the court may, on order of the court, if found to be more economical and convenient, give personal notice of the pendency of the report of the board of appraisers, instead of notice by publication. When the only question at issue is additional damages or reduction of benefits to property due to modification or additions to the plans, the board of directors may, if it finds it practicable, make settlements with the owners of the property damaged, instead of having appraisals made by the board of appraisers. In case such settlements are made, notice and hearing need not be had. After bonds have been sold, in order that their security may not be impaired, no reduction shall be made in the amount of benefits appraised against property in the district. This section applies to all changes in appraisals under this chapter.

Effective: October 1, 1953|Latest Legislation:  House Bill 1 - 100th General Assembly|No appeal under sections 6115.01 to 6115.79, inclusive, of the Revised Code, shall be permitted to interrupt or delay any action or the prosecution of any work under such sections, except where the party appealing is entitled to a jury under the constitution of the state, and such jury trial has not been had, in which case only so much of the work shall be interrupted or delayed as would constitute a taking of or a damaging of the property of the appellant.The board of directors of a sanitary district may appeal from any order of the court of common pleas made in any proceedings under such sections not requiring the intervention of a jury.The failure to appeal from any order of the court in any proceedings under sections 6115.01 to 6115.79, inclusive, of the Revised Code, within the time specified in such sections constitutes a waiver of any irregularity in the proceedings, and the remedies provided for in such sections exclude all other remedies except as provided in such sections.

2021 Ohio Revised Code|Title 61 | Water Supply-Sanitation-Ditches|Chapter 6115 | Sanitary Districts|Section 6115.43 | Appraising Lands Not at First Included Within the Boundaries of District.

Effective: October 9, 1981|Latest Legislation:  House Bill 156 - 114th General Assembly|In case any real property within or without any sanitary district is benefited which for any reason was not appraised in the original proceedings, or was not appraised to the extent of benefits received, or in case any person, public corporation, or other district makes use of or profits by the works of any district to a degree not compensated for in the original appraisal, or in case the board of directors of the sanitary district finds it necessary, subsequent to the time when the first appraisals are made, to take or damage any additional property, the board of directors, at any time that condition becomes evident, shall direct the board of appraisers of the sanitary district to appraise the benefits or enhanced benefits received by that property, or the damages or value of property taken. Proceedings outlined in sections 6115.01 to 6115.79 of the Revised Code for appraising lands not at first included within the boundaries of the district shall in all matters be conformed with, including notice to the parties, or the board of directors may make any suitable settlement with the person, public corporation, or other district for the use, benefit, damage, or property taken.In the case of a district organized wholly for the reduction of populations of biting arthropods, if the board of appraisers determines that each parcel of real property in the district receives a portion of the benefits received by the entire district in the same proportion that its taxable value bears to the taxable value of all the real property in the district, and the court confirms the determination of the board, the assessments for the reduction of such populations shall be uniformly apportioned throughout the district on that basis.

Thereupon said land shall be assessed as other land equally benefited. If at any time either before or after the issuance of bonds pursuant to such sections, the appraisal of benefits, either as a whole or in part, is declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid by reason of any defect or irregularity in the proceedings therefor, whether jurisdictional or otherwise, the court of common pleas, on the application of the board of directors of the sanitary district or on the application of any holder of any bonds which have been issued pursuant to such sections, shall promptly and without delay remedy all defects or irregularities as the case requires by directing the board of appraisers of the sanitary district to make, in the manner provided in section 6115.30 of the Revised Code, a new appraisal of the amount of benefits against the whole or any part of the lands in said district as the case requires.
