The proceeds of the sale of such improvement shall be distributed by the local agency to the owners of the property which has been or is being assessed to pay for such improvement as their names and addresses appear on the last equalized city or county assessment roll, as the case may be, available on the date the distribution there is commenced, and at their addresses as shown upon such roll or as shown to the official effecting the distribution. Each property owner shall receive an amount which bears the same ratio to the total proceeds as the current assessment against his property bears to the total current assessment for such improvement. In the event the total amount each property owner is entitled to receive exceeds fifty dollars ($50), such property owner shall certify under penalty of perjury that he is the owner or was the legal owner of such property on the date of distribution. Payment to such person by the local agency shall relieve such local agency of all and any liability for payment under this section.
