If such action is taken, and prior to the decision taking final effect, the director shall issue an order respecting boundaries, with notice mailed to the legal owner as shown in the county assessor’s tax records for affected parcels, as well as the occupant of the property, if any. This order shall include a statement setting forth any affected owner or occupant’s right to appeal as provided in SMC 17D.060.100.
     
  3. The natural location of drainage systems shall be decided by the director after considering recognized engineering standards, technical information and field inspections.

This order shall include a statement setting forth any affected owner or occupant’s right to appeal as provided in SMC 17D.060.100.
