§ 35.06 SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ROLL; FILING; HEARINGS.
   When the special assessment roll shall have been reported to the Council, they shall order the same filed in the office of the City Clerk for public examination along with the report of the Mayor required to be made pursuant to § 35.03, and shall fix a date, time and place when the Council shall meet as a board of review to review the roll and to hear complaints. The assessment roll shall be open to public inspection for a period of seven days before the Council meets as a board of review. The City Clerk shall give notice of the meeting of the Council to review the special assessment roll and to hear complaints by publication at least once in a newspaper printed and circulated in the city, at least ten days prior to the time of the meeting, and shall further cause notice of the meeting to be mailed by first-class mail to each property owner in the special assessment district as shown by the current assessment rolls of the city at least ten days prior to the time of the hearing, the notice to be mailed to the addresses shown on the current assessment rolls of the city.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.07 SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ROLL; CHANGES.
   (A)   The Council shall meet and review the special assessment roll at the time and place appointed or at an adjourned meeting thereof and shall consider any objections thereto. The Council may correct the roll as to any assessment or description of any lot or parcel of land or other errors appearing therein. Any changes made in such roll shall be noted in the Council's minutes. After such hearing and review the Council may confirm such special assessment roll with such corrections as it may have made, if any, or may refer it back to the City Assessor for revision, or may annul it or any proceedings in connection therewith. The City Clerk shall endorse the date of confirmation upon each special assessment roll.
   (B)   The roll shall be, upon ratification and confirmation, final and conclusive.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.08 OBJECTION BY MAJORITY OF PROPERTY OWNERS.
   (A)   If at or prior to the meeting of the board of review the owners of more than ½ of the property to be assessed object in writing to the improvement, assessment shall not be made without an affirmative vote of five members of the Council.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.09 LIEN ON PROPERTY; DUE DATES OF ASSESSMENTS.
   (A)   All special assessments contained in any special assessment roll, including any part thereof to be paid in installments, shall from the date of confirmation of such roll constitute a lien upon the respective lots or parcels of land assessed and until paid shall be a charge against the respective owners of the several lots and parcels of land and a debt to the city from the persons to whom they are assessed. Such lien shall be of the same character and effect as the lien created by the City Charter for city taxes and shall include accrued interest and fees. No judgment or decree nor act of the Council vacating a special assessment shall destroy or impair the lien of the city upon the premises assessed for such amount of the assessment as may be equitably charged against the same or as by a regular mode of proceeding might be lawfully assessed thereon. All special assessments shall become due upon confirmation of the special assessment roll or in annual installments, not to exceed ten in number, as the Council may determine at the time of confirmation; or upon any other date the Council may prescribe, and the subsequent installments shall be spread upon the city tax roll. The second installment shall be collected as part of the first city tax roll which becomes due six months or more after the due date of the initial installment.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.10 COLLECTION BY CITY TREASURER.
   (A)   Whenever any special assessment roll shall be confirmed and be payable, the Council shall direct the City Clerk to transmit the assessment roll to the City Treasurer for collection. The City Treasurer shall mail statements of the several assessments to the respective owners of the several lots and parcels of land assessed, as indicated by the records of the City Assessor, stating the amount of the assessment and the manner in which it may be paid; provided, however, that failure to mail any such statement shall not invalidate the assessment or entitle the owner to an extension of time within which to pay the assessment.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
