(A) After the staff report has been filed with the city, and after the Council has examined the report and found the report to be satisfactory, and the estimated cost thereof to be reasonable and just, and after having found the boundaries of the improvements district to be properly determined, the Council may, by resolution, propose to make the improvement, and create a local improvement district. Unless those persons representing at least two-thirds of the proposed estimated assessment within the local improvement district file with the City Recorder a written objection and remonstrance against the proposed local improvement district prior to the public hearing or within seven days following the public hearing, the Council may proceed to order the formation of the local improvement district as proposed in the plans and specifications previously adopted or as may be amended by the Council following the hearing. Any objection or remonstrance shall state the grounds for the objections or remonstrance.
(B) The resolution shall state:
(1) The boundaries of the local improvement district;
(2) The proposed method of apportioning the estimated actual cost (estimated assessments) of the local improvement among the property owners;
(3) The portion of the estimated actual cost, if any, which the city shall pay;
(4) The portion of the estimated actual cost (estimated assessment) which are assessed to the property owners shall be a charge and a lien upon the properties benefitted;
(5) The time and the place of the public hearing to consider public comments and objections to the proposed local improvement district; and
(6) Direct the Recorder to provide notice of the hearing as required by state law which shall state that the Council shall hear and consider objections or remonstrances to the proposed improvement by any parties aggrieved thereby. The notice shall state that the Council, by resolution, has proposed to create a local improvement district and include the following:
“Unless those persons representing at least of the proposed estimated assessment within the said local improvement district file with the City Recorder a written objection and remonstrance against such proposed local improvement district prior to the public hearing or within seven days following the public hearing, the Council may proceed to order the formation of the local improvement district as proposed in the plans and specifications previously adopted or as may be amended by the Council following the hearing. Any such objection or remonstrance shall state the grounds for such objections or remonstrance.”
