[IC 6-1.1-9-1; 6-1.1-9-2] To add omitted property to the tax duplicate after same has been delivered to the treasurer, it is suggested that the county auditor enter the assessment and the taxes thereon on a sheet in the tax duplicate following the last item of original entry in the proper taxing district.
