owners, the rate of interest, if any, that shall be charged
upon deferred payments and shall provide penalties for fail-
ure to pay any deferred payment when due. Assessments
so levied as aforesaid shall be a lien upon the property
against which they are charged superior to all other liens
from the date of the approval of such assessments by the
Council.

(D) In the event that provision shall be made for the
payment of the assessment aforesaid in installments, upon
a failure to pay any one or more of said installments when
the same shall become due the whole amount thereof and of
such assessment shall immediately become due and payable.
All assessments levied hereunder whenever the same shall
become overdue according to the terms of the ordinance pro-
viding therefor, or by reason of the nonpayment of any in-
stallment thereof, may be collected by action in equity to be
brought in the county in which the land so assessed is situ-

are now or may hereafter be collected and any sale made
for the non-payment of such assessment and any deed made
pursuant to such sale shall be entitled to all the presump-

sales and deeds made for default in payment of general taxes
due said town; and when any real property assessed as
herein provided for shall become liable to sale for any other
assessment of tax whatsoever, then the assessment levied
under this section shall become immediately due and payable

therefor together with accrued interest thereon and costs to

not bar the right of said town to collect said assessment and
enforce the lien thereof by equitable suit as aforesaid.

the full frontage of said lot for any improvements abutting
thereon; in case the improvements are extended along the
side of said lot the assessment for such improvements shall
be made for one-half only of the lineal footage thereof.
Should any question arise as to the street upon which said
property may front, the decision of the Council in regard
thereto shall be final and conclusive. In the case of irregu-
