In addition to the published notice required by § 38.23, the City Clerk shall provide notice of the proposed local improvement and essential service assessment by first class mail to the owner of each parcel of property subject to the assessment. The mailed notice shall conform to the requirements set forth in the Uniform Assessment Collection Act. Notice shall be mailed at least 20 calendar days prior to the hearing to each property owner at such address as is shown on the tax roll. Notice shall be deemed mailed upon delivery thereof to the possession of the U.S. Postal Service. The City Clerk may provide proof of such notice by affidavit. Failure of the owner to receive such notice due to mistake or inadvertence shall not affect the validity of the local improvement and essential service assessment roll or release or discharge any obligation for the payment of a local improvement and essential service assessment imposed by the City Commission pursuant to this chapter.
