5.30.160 Hearing and certification of assessment roll.
   A.   At the hearing on the assessment roll, the council shall hear oral objections to assessments and shall consider all written objections that were timely filed with the clerk. The property owner has the burden of proving an error in the assessment. An error may be shown by proving an error in computation or measurement or that the property cannot receive any benefit, gain or advantage from the improvement.
   B.   After consideration of objections, the council shall correct any errors in the roll and adjust all assessments to account for any deficiency or overage that accrues because of corrections. If an assessment is increased by more than five percent, a new hearing shall be set and notice published, except that a new hearing and notice is not required if all record owners of property subject to the increased assessment consent in writing to the increase. Objection to the increased assessment shall be limited to record owners of property on which the assessment was increased by more than five percent.
   C.   When the roll is corrected, the council shall pass a resolution confirming the assessment roll.
