SECTION 8.9. MEETINGS OF BOARD OF REVIEW.
   (A)   The Board of Review shall convene at 9:00 o'clock a.m. on the Tuesday immediately following the first Monday in March in each year at a place designated by the Council, or on such other date as may subsequently be required by law for the meeting of boards of review in cities, and continue in session from day to day for not less than six hours on each day for not less than two days for the purpose of considering the assessment roll of the city.
   (B)   Not later than one week prior to his certification of the assessment roll, the Assessor shall:
      (1)   Complete to the best of his ability a tentative assessment roll and make it available for public inspection in his office for a period of at least one week; and
      (2)   Give a notice of any change, as compared with the previous year, in the assessed value of any property on, or of the addition of any property to, the roll. Such notice shall be sent by first class mail with postage thereon fully prepaid and addressed to the owner thereof according to the records of the Assessor. Such notice shall advise the person to whom it is addressed that the change in valuation or addition of property to the roll may be discussed with the Assessor at his office prior to the meeting of the Board of Review. The failure of any owner of property to receive any such notice shall not invalidate any assessment roll or any assessment thereon.
   (C)   The Assessor shall, during such period of public inspection, hear and review inquiries regarding the assessment of property on the assessment roll and may consider information so received by him in determining values on the assessment roll certified by him to the Board of Review.
