Sec. 4-29.
Sale of district owned real estate - petition - notice -
hearing - order. When the commissioners deem it advisable to sell any real
estate owned by the district, they shall petition the court for an order
authorizing such sale. The petition when filed shall be presented to the
court, which shall fix the date and hour for hearing. The clerk of the
court shall give notice of the hearing in the manner and for the length of
time prescribed by Section 4-22, and no notice by mailing shall be
required. The notice shall be entitled "Drainage Notice," shall be
addressed "To All Persons Interested" and must state (a) in what court and
on what date the petition was filed, (b) a description of the real estate
petitioned to be sold and (c) the place, date and hour the petition will be
heard. At the hearing on the petition, any owner of land in the district
may appear and be heard without filing written objections. If, at the
conclusion of the hearing, the court finds that it is advisable to sell the
real estate, or any part thereof, it shall order the commissioners to make
such sale, fix the terms of sale, direct the manner of giving notice of
such sale and direct the conveyance to be made upon compliance with the
terms. The order may also contain any pertinent provisions in regard to the
cancellation of the lien of any past due and unpaid assessments, or
installments of assessments, or annual maintenance assessments of such
district which may be a lien on such land which the court may find should be cancelled.
