If any special tax or assessment levied upon any property located within the irrigation district is found to be invalid and uncollectible, or is adjudged to be void by a court of competent jurisdiction, or paid under protest and recovered by suit, because of any defect, irregularity, or invalidity in any of the proceedings or on account of the failure to observe and comply with any of the conditions, prerequisites, and requirements of any statute or resolution, the board of directors may relevy the special tax or assessment on the property in the same manner as other special taxes and assessments are levied, without regard to whether the formalities, prerequisites, or conditions before equalization have been met.
If there is an erroneous extension of the water charge assessment, either against the wrong tract of land or against the wrong person, the assessment may not, for that reason, be invalidated. The district board upon the discovery of the error may release, abate, refund, or otherwise correct the assessment by directing the county auditor to release, abate, refund, or otherwise correct the assessment and to spread the assessment against the proper person or against the correct tract, or to abate the assessment, or to refund the water charge assessment erroneously collected, as the case may require.
