§ 8.4.5. Publication of preliminary assessment roll.

Upon the completion of said preliminary assessment roll, the City Commission shall by resolution fix a time and place at which the owners of the property to be assessed or any other persons interested therein may appear before the Commission and be heard as to the propriety and advisability of making such improvements, as to the cost thereof, as to the manner of payment therefor, and as to the amount thereof to be assessed against each property so improved. Thirty days' notice in writing of such time and place shall be given to such property owners. The notice shall include the amount of the assessment and shall be served by mailing a copy to each of such property owners at his or her last known address, the names and addresses of such property owners to be obtained from the records of the property appraiser or from such other sources as the City Clerk deems appropriate, proof of such mailing to be made by the affidavit of the City Clerk, said proof to be filed in the City Clerk's Office, provided, that failure to mail said notice or notices shall not invalidate any of the proceedings hereunder. Notice of the time and place of such hearing shall also be given by two publications a week apart in a newspaper of general circulation published in the County; provided that the last publication shall be at least one week prior to the date of the hearing. Said notice shall describe the areas to be improved and advise all persons interested that the description of each property to be assessed and the amount to be assessed to each piece or parcel of the property may be ascertained at the office of the City Clerk. Such service by publication shall be verified by the affidavit of the publisher and filed with the City Clerk.
