Executive Order 1158

From Wikisource


The Isthmian Canal Commission may, from the necessities of sanitation, cause such improvements to be made in the Canal Zone as the construction of streets, roads, and trails, water and sewer systems, and similar sanitary improvements, and may charge such proportion of the cost thereof, not to exceed one-naif, to the owners of the property adjacent to, abutting upon, or within the district in which such improvement is necessary and has been made, as may be decided by the Isthmian Canal Commission to be just and equitable.


Due notice of all such improvements shall be given to persons affected thereby together with the estimated assessment, in accordance with rules to be issued by the Isthmian Canal Commission. Any unpaid assessment shall become a lien upon the property affected thereby collectible as provided by law.
