Council shall meet and hear objections to the public improvement, the special assessment district and the special assessment roll therefor at the time and place appointed or at an adjourned meeting thereof and shall consider any objections thereto. Council may revise, correct or amend the plans, the estimates of cost, the special assessment district or the special assessment roll. If any changes are made which result in additions to the special assessment district or increases in the special assessment roll, then a second hearing shall be held with respect to such changes and notice of such hearing shall be given in the same manner as required for the first hearing. After the hearing, or the second hearing if required, Council may, by resolution, determine to proceed with the public improvement, determine the necessity thereof, set forth the nature thereof, designate the limits of the special assessment district to be affected and describe the lands to be assessed. Council shall finally determine the part or proportion of the cost of the public improvement to be paid by the lands specially benefited thereby and the part or portion, if any, to be paid by the City at large for benefit to the City at large. Council may also confirm the special assessment roll with such corrections as it may have made, if any, or may refer it back to the Assessor for revision, or may annul it or any proceedings in connection therewith. If the owners of more than one-half of the property to be assessed shall object in writing to the improvement at or prior to the meeting of the Board of Review, the assessment shall not be made without a four-fifths vote of the members of the Council. The City Clerk shall endorse the date of confirmation upon each special assessment roll.
