It shall be the duty of the board of park commissioners or park authorities after the improvement of said street or streets, or parts thereof, taken as aforesaid from such city, town or village, to make an estimate of the amount of money required during the succeeding year for the maintenance, repair, up-keep and government of said street or streets or parts thereof in each city, town or village through which the said street or streets, or part or parts thereof, may extend that does not lie within the territory taxed for the maintenance of the board of park commissioners or park authorities taking said street or streets, or part or parts thereof, which estimate shall be made and certified to the local authorities of such city, town or village on or before the first day of September in each year.
