In such event, the state fire marshal shall cause the following assessments, based on current valuation, to be made and certified to the legislative body of each member of the fund having a volunteer fire department or employing volunteer fire fighters:
Every private volunteer fire company which is a member of the fund shall be assessed one hundred fifty dollars.
