Nothing in this act shall be construed to prohibit any municipality from assessing benefits for street, sidewalk, sewer or other municipal improvements against any of the property of a railroad in this State, but such assessments shall be made against railroad property by the same method and by the same officers as are provided by law in the case of assessments against the properties of individuals. The commissioner may delegate to any officer or employee of his department such of his powers as he may deem necessary to carry out efficiently the provisions of this act, including the power to appraise and assess any or all property in railroad use, and the person or persons to whom such power has been delegated shall possess and may exercise all of the power and perform all of the duties herein conferred and imposed upon the commissioner.
