(B) Such notice shall be in writing and either be served personally or by return receipt mail, on each owner or by publication once in each week for two consecutive weeks. It shall set forth the character of the work and the time within which it is to be done. Such notice may be general as to the owners but shall be specific as to the description of such lots.
