All special assessments contained in any special assessment roll, including any part thereof deferred as to payment, shall, from the date of confirmation of the roll, constitute a lien upon the respective lots or parcels of land assessed and until paid shall be a charge against the respective owners of the several lots and parcels of land. The lien shall be of the same character and effect as the lien created for village taxes and shall include accrued interest and penalties. No judgment or decree, nor any act of the Village Council vacating a special assessment, shall destroy or impair the lien of the village upon the premises assessed for the amount of the assessment as may be equitably charged against the same, or as by a regular mode of proceeding might be lawfully assessed thereon.
