Whenever any olive, stone, or pome fruit trees have been removed from any parcel of land included in the district, the owner of the parcel of land may file with the board an affidavit particularly describing the parcel of land, and setting forth the fact of the removal of the trees. Upon receipt of the affidavit, the board shall cause an investigation of the parcel of land to be made and, if the board finds the statements in the affidavit are true, the board shall immediately verify this fact and the amount of olive, stone, or pome fruit trees removed shall not be assessed on the next assessment roll.
