(1) If any person before certification of the list to the clerk and recorder presents to the treasurer an affidavit that the person is the owner of a lot on the list, accompanied by the certificate of a searcher of records that the person is the owner of record, and notifies the treasurer in writing that the person does not desire a bond to be issued for the assessment upon the lot, then the assessment may not be included in the list and remains collectible as provided by parts 41 and 42 of chapter 12 and this part.

(2) Failure to file the notice bars any defense against the bonds except the defense that the governing body did not have authority to issue the bonds.
