      2.  The county treasurer shall separately itemize the items of such assessment roll on the statement of state and county taxes.

      3.  The assessments when levied and enrolled shall become due and delinquent at the same time and be subject to the same penalties and shall be collected by the same officers and in the same manner as state and county taxes.

      5.  The secretary of the board of directors, at the time of delivering the duplicate assessment roll of the district to each county auditor, shall attach thereto, in some suitable form, a recapitulation list showing the name or names of each person, corporation or association listed in the assessment roll and the amount of money assessed and to be collected by the county treasurer or tax collector, which recapitulation list shall be delivered by the county auditor to the county treasurer with the duplicate assessment roll. The county treasurer shall insert after each name, in proper columns provided for that purpose in the duplicate assessment roll and in the recapitulation list, the amount paid by each person, or persons, corporation or association appearing on the assessment roll, or by stamping the word “Paid” after each sum, if the assessment is paid in full.
