WM. PRESTON LANE, JR., GOVERNOR. 41

pleted upon all property in said sanitary district abutting
upon said water main or sewer, in accordance with the
classification or sub-division thereof, and shall in writing,
notify all owners of said properties into which class and
sub-division their respective properties fall and the charge
determined upon, naming also in said notice a time and
place, when and at which time said owner will be heard.
Such notice may be mailed to the last known address of
the owner, or served in person upon any adult occupying
the premises or in case of a vacant or unimproved property
posted upon the premises. The classification of and the
benefit assessed against any property as made by the Com-
mission shall be final, subject only to revision at said hear-
ing. The Commission may change the classification of prop-
erty from time to time as said properties change in the uses
to which they are put. Said benefits shall be levied for both
water supply and sewerage construction and shall be based
for each class of property upon the number of front feet
abutting upon the street, lane, road, alley or right-of-way
in which the water pipe or sewer is placed; provided, how-
ever, that in the case of any irregular shaped lot abutting
upon a road, street, lane, alley or right-of-way in which there
is or is being constructed a water main or sewer at any
point, said lot shall be assessed for such frontage as the
Commission may determine to be reasonable and fair; and
provided further that no lot in a sub-division property shall
be assessed on more than one side, unless said lot abuts
upon two parallel streets, that corner lots may be averaged
and assessed upon such frontage as the Commission may
deem reasonable and fair, and that all lots in this class
shall be assessed even though a water main or sewer may
not extend along the full length of any boundary; and pro-
vided further, that no land so classified as agricultural by
this Commission shall be assessed a front foot benefit when
said agricultural land has constructed through it or in
front of it a sewer or water main, until such time as the
water or sewer connection is made, and when so made and
for every connection such land shall become liable to a
front foot assessment for such reasonable frontage not ex-
ceeding three hundred (300) feet, or may be determined by
said Commission, and shall be immediately assessed at the
rate of assessment determined by said Commission for agri-
cultural land.

380L. Front foot benefit charges for water supply and
sewerage construction shall be as nearly uniform as is rea-
sonably practical for each class or subclass of property
throughout the district for any one year and no benefit
charge, once levied, shall be increased; provided, however,
that whenever the Commission acquires an existing system
