     8  1 days after its adjournment or May 31, whichever date
     8  2 is later.  Appeals may be taken from the action of
     8  3 the property assessment appeal board to the district
     8  4 court of the county where the property which is the
     8  5 subject of the appeal is located within twenty days
     8  6 after the letter of disposition of the appeal by the
     8  7 property assessment appeal board is postmarked to the
     8  8 appellant.  No new grounds in addition to those set out
     8  9 in the protest to the local board of review as provided
     8 10 in section 441.37, or in addition to those set out in
     8 11 the appeal to the property assessment appeal board, if
     8 12 applicable, can be pleaded.  Additional evidence to
     8 13 sustain those grounds may be introduced in an appeal
     8 14 from the local board of review to the district court.
     8 15 However, no new evidence to sustain those grounds may
     8 16 be introduced in an appeal from the property assessment
     8 17 appeal board to the district court.  The assessor shall
     8 18 have the same right to appeal and in the same manner as
     8 19 an individual taxpayer, public body, or other public
     8 20 officer as provided in section 441.42.  Appeals shall
     8 21 be taken by filing a written notice of appeal with the
     8 22 clerk of district court.  Filing of the written notice
     8 23 of appeal shall preserve all rights of appeal of the
     8 24 appellant.
     8 25    2.  If the appeal to district court is taken from
     8 26 the action of the local board of review, notice of
     8 27 appeal shall be served as an original notice on the
     8 28 chairperson, presiding officer, or clerk of the board
     8 29 of review after the filing of notice under subsection
     8 30 1 with the clerk of district court.  If the appeal to
     8 31 district court is taken from the action of the property
     8 32 assessment appeal board, notice of appeal shall be
     8 33 served as an original notice on the secretary of the
     8 34 property assessment appeal board after the filing of
     8 35 notice under subsection 1 with the clerk of district
     8 36 court.
     8 37 Sec. ___.  Section 441.38A, Code 2009, is amended to
     8 38 read as follows:
     8 39    441.38A  Notice to school district.
     8 40    In addition to any other requirement for providing
     8 41 of notice, if a property owner or aggrieved taxpayer
     8 42 files a protest against the assessment of property
     8 43 valued at five million dollars or more or files an
     8 44 appeal to the property assessment appeal board or
     8 45 the district court with regard to such property, the
     8 46 assessor shall provide notice to the school district in
     8 47 which such property is located within ten days of the
     8 48 filing of the protest or the appeal, as applicable.
