(1) The treasurer, at the time he certifies the list of unpaid assessments to the clerk, shall write the word "certified" on the record of the assessment opposite each assessment included in the list, and thereupon all assessments of $25 or over shall cease to be payable in cash and shall thereafter be payable only in equal annual installments on December 1 in each year preceding January 1 on which the bonds become due.
