The county engineer shall prepare and file with the board of county commissioners,

assessments upon lands benefited thereby. Thereupon such board shall file such copies in its office for the inspection and
examination of all persons interested. Except in a case involving the improvement of a public road in which no land or
property is taken or assessed, the board shall publish in a newspaper of general circulation
in the county, for the period of two weeks or as provided in section 7.16 of the Revised Code , notice that a resolution has been adopted providing for said improvement, and that
copies of the surveys, plans, profiles, cross sections, estimates, and specifications,
together with estimated assessments upon the lands benefited by such improvement for
the proportion of the cost thereof to be assessed therefor, are on file in the office
of the board for the inspection of persons interested therein. Such notice shall state the time and place for hearing objections to said improvement
and to such estimated assessments. In a case involving the improvement of a public road in which no land or property
is taken or assessed, the board shall publish the notice required by this section
once a week for two consecutive weeks or as provided in section 7.16 of the Revised Code . At such hearing the board may order said surveys, plans, profiles, cross sections,
estimates, and specifications to be changed or modified and shall make such adjustments
of the estimated assessments as seem just to it. Thereupon the board may approve such surveys, plans, profiles, cross sections, specifications,
and estimates and approve and confirm estimated assessments as made by the engineer
or as modified and changed by the board. Such assessments when so approved and confirmed shall be certified to the county
auditor of the county and shall thereupon become a lien upon the land charged therewith. The board may declare against said improvement.
