The principal shall be payable in not more than twenty semiannual installments, extending over a period of not more than ten years, as determined by the board of township trustees.

In the event that bonds are issued to pay the compensation, damages, and costs incident to such improvement, the principal sum of such assessment shall be payable in such number of equal semiannual installments as will provide a fund for the redemption of the bonds and shall bear interest from the date of and at the same rate as the bonds.
