§ 35.11 COLLECTION FEE.
   (A)   The whole or any part of any such assessment may be paid at any time after the day of confirmation of the special assessment roll until the tenth day of the second calendar month following such confirmation without interest or penalty.
   (B)   Each special assessment shall be collected by the City Treasurer with the same rights and remedies as provided in the Charter for the collection of taxes, except as otherwise herein provided. On the eleventh day of the second calendar month following the due date, the City Treasurer shall add to all assessments or installments paid on such day and thereafter a collection fee of 4% of the amount of the assessment or installment and on the eleventh day of each succeeding month he shall add an additional 0.5% as a collection fee. All collection fees shall belong to the city and be collectible in the same manner as the collection fee for city taxes.
   (C)   After the expiration of the period provided in division (A) of this section for payment without interest or fees, any installment may be discharged by paying the face amount thereof together with fees and interest thereon from the date of confirmation to the date of payment; provided, however, that if the public improvement has been financed by the sale of non-callable bonds or other evidences of indebtedness which are not prepayable, then the interest shall be computed from the date of confirmation to the date upon which such installment would have fallen due had it not been prepaid.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.12 ADDITIONAL ASSESSMENTS.
   (A)   Should the assessments on any special assessment roll, including the amount assessed to the city at large, prove insufficient for any reason to pay the cost of the improvement for which they were made, then the Council may make additional pro rata assessments to supply the deficiency against the city and the several lots and parcels of land in the same ratio as the original assessments, but the total amount assessed against any lot or parcel of land shall not exceed the value of the benefits received from the improvement.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.13 EXCESS ASSESSMENT FUNDS.
   (A)   Should the special assessment or the proceeds of sale of any special assessment bonds prove larger than necessary to meet the costs of the improvement or to meet the principal and interest requirements of any special assessment bonds and expenses incidental thereto, the excess shall be placed in the City Treasury. If more than 5%, the excess shall be returned pro rata according to assessments; except as otherwise provided in § 35.15(A). No refunds may be made which contravene the provisions of any evidence of indebtedness secured in whole or in part by such special assessment.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.14 APPORTIONMENT AMONG SUBSEQUENTLY DIVIDED LOTS.
   (A)   Should any lots or lands be divided after a special assessment thereon has been confirmed and divided into installments, the City Assessor shall apportion the uncollected amounts upon the several lots and lands so divided, and shall enter the several amounts as amendments upon the special assessment roll. The City Treasurer shall, within ten days after such apportionment, send notice of such action to the persons concerned at their last known address by first class mail. The apportionment shall be final and conclusive on all parties unless protest in writing is received by the City Treasurer within 20 days of the mailing of the aforesaid notice.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.15 INVALID OR ILLEGAL ASSESSMENTS.
   (A)   Whenever the Council deems any special assessment invalid or defective, or whenever a court adjudges an assessment to be illegal in whole or in part, the Council may cause a new assessment to be levied for the same purpose, whether or not the improvement or any part thereof has been completed, or any part of the special assessment collected. All proceedings on such reassessment and for the collection thereof shall be conducted in the same manner as provided for the original assessment. If any portion of the original special assessment is collected and not refunded, it shall be applied upon the reassessment, and the reassessment shall to that extent be deemed satisfied. If more than the amount reassessed is collected, the balance shall be refunded to the person making such payment.
   (B)   If in any action it shall appear that by reason of any irregularities or informalities the assessment has not been properly made against the person assessed or upon the lot or premises sought to be charged, the court may nevertheless, on satisfactory proof that expense has been incurred by the city which is a proper charge against the person assessed or the lot or premises in question, render judgment for the amount properly chargeable against such person or upon such lot or premises.
(Ord. 148, passed 5-6-69)
§ 35.16 NOTICE OF SUIT CONTESTING ASSESSMENT.
   No suit or action shall be instituted or maintained for the purpose of contesting or enjoining the collection of a special assessment unless written notice, stating an intention to contest the collection thereof and setting forth the grounds of such contest, is filed with the Clerk. Such notice shall be filed within 30 days after the date of the resolution of the Council confirming the assessment upon a single lot or premise, ordering the special assessment. Any such suit or action must be commenced within 60 days following the giving of notice.
