public as to existing liens and charges against any property within
any sanitary district abutting upon any water or sewer main, the
said Commission shall keep a public record of all names of owners of
property, locations of said property, lot numbers when of record,
and the amount of such benefit charges, water service charges or
such other charges that may become liens from time to time. Said
records shall be kept in the County seat of government and among
the land records of the County, in which said district lies, and the
Clerk of the Circuit Court for said county shall furnish such space
as may be necessary to keep and preserve such records, which, when
recorded in said public record, shall be legal notice of all existing
liens within any sanitary district. If any liens, benefit assessments
or other charges remain unpaid for sixty (60) days after becoming
due, they may be collected by an action of assumpsit or by a bill in
equity to enforce such liens, and any judgment or decree obtained,
where the defendants have been served by subpoena, or in any other
manner provided by law, shall have the force and effect of a judgment
in personam; and the Commission may sue, or file a bill in equity to
enforce said liens against the owner of record at the time said suit is
filed or any owner of record between said dates, and publication
thereon shall be notice to all persons having any interest in said
property.

590. (a) For the purpose of retiring the bonds authorized to be
issued by this sub-title and of paying the interest thereon, the Com-
mission shall cause to be levied, against all assessable property within
said sanitary districts for which said bonds have been issued, by the
governing body of the county in which said District is located annually
so long as any of said bonds are outstanding and not paid, a tax
sufficient to provide such sum as the Commission may deem sufficient
and necessary, in conjunction with any amounts as the Commission
may estimate that it will be able to collect out of the benefit assess-
ments therefor levied by it but not yet paid and any further funds
then available for the purpose, to meet the interest on said bonds
as it becomes due and to pay the principal thereof as the bonds
mature,, and said tax shall be determined, levied, collected and paid
over in the manner following, that is to say, at least sixty days before
the tax levying period of each year, the governing body shall certify
to the Commission the whole valuation of the assessable property
within each sanitary district. The Commission shall then determine
in the manner above prescribed the amount which it deems neces-
sary to be raised during the ensuing year for the payment of interest
and principal of all bonds maturing in said year, and after deducting
all amounts in hand or in contemplation applicable to payments of
interest and principal on said bonds as hereinbefore and hereinafter
in this sub-title provided, it shall determine the number of cents per
$100.00 necessary to raise the said amount for each such sanitary
district and shall certify the same to the governing body. The said
governing body in their next annual levy shall levy said tax on all
land and improvements and all other property assessed for county
tax purposes within the respective sanitary district, which tax shall
be levied and collected and have the same priority rights, bear the
same interest and penalties and in every respect be treated the same
as county taxes. The tax so levied for the ensuing year shall be
collected by the respective tax collecting authorities and every sixty
days they shall remit the whole amount of the tax so collected to
the Commission. From the money so received, together with the
