At any time after an installment becomes delinquent and a penalty is added therefor and while the delinquent amount is still unpaid, the Council, in its discretion, may declare the whole unpaid amount on account of the assessment to be in default and delinquent; and after such declaration the lot or parcel of land against which the assessment was levied shall be advertised and sold in the manner hereinafter provided, as though the whole amount or final installment of such assessment had become delinquent for failure to pay prior to the dates therefor.
No additional penalty shall be added for such declared default. But if any person thereafter pays the balance due in order to prevent the sale of the property or to redeem the same from sale the person shall pay, in addition to all other amounts required therefor, the amounts that would also have been necessary on account of penalties that might have been imposed regularly on any delinquency dates after the date of the declaration and before the time of the payment.
