In connection with issuance of refunding bonds as provided in Sections 4-55A-35 through 4-55A-38 NMSA 1978, the board may by ordinance provide that any unpaid assessment and accrued interest on the assessment shall be paid in not more than twenty years with interest at a rate of interest not less than the rate borne by the refunding bonds and with the penalties as lawfully attached to the original assessment. The owner of a tract or parcel of land that is assessed may at any time pay the assessment in full with interest to the time of payment.
