(A) The Council shall determine, by resolution, from time to time the streets on which trees shall be trimmed and cared for, the kind of work to be done and what unsound trees shall be removed. Before any work is done pursuant to either of these resolutions, the City Administrator shall, under the Council’s direction, publish notice that the Council will meet to consider the projects. The notice shall be published in the official newspaper at least once no less than two weeks prior to the meeting of the Council and shall state the date, time and place of the meeting, the streets affected, and the particular projects proposed, and the estimated cost of each project, either in total or on the basis of the proposed assessment per front foot or otherwise. Property owners will also be notified individually.
(B) At the hearing or at any adjournment thereof, the Council shall hear property owners with reference to the scope and desirability of the proposed projects. The Council may, thereupon, adopt a resolution confirming the original projects with such modifications as it considers desirable and may provide for the doing of the work by day labor through the Street Commissioner or by contract. The Street Commissioner shall keep a record of the cost and the portion of the cost properly attributable to each lot and parcel of property abutting on the street or alley on which the work is done and shall report the information to the City Administrator.
