Whenever any lot or parcel of land belonging to the United States, or to the State of California, or to the County of Los Angeles, or to the City of Los Angeles, or to any public agent or mandatory of the government, whether federal, state, county or municipal, and being used in the performance of any public governmental function, shall be included within the district to be assessed to pay the costs and expenses of the proposed improvement, the Council may, in the Ordinance of Intention, declare that said lots or parcels of land, or any of them, shall be omitted from the assessment thereafter to be levied to cover the costs and expenses of the improvement, in which event the total amount to be assessed for the improvement shall be assessed upon the remaining lots or parcels of land lying within the limits of the Assessment District, without regard to such omitted lots or parcels of land. In the event that there is no declaration in the Ordinance of Intention that any such lots or parcels of land shall be omitted from the assessment, then the City shall be liable for such sums as may thereafter be assessed against those lots or parcels, which sums shall be payable by the City out of the general fund unless another fund is designated therefor. However, any such sums which may be assessed against any such lots or parcels of land shall not be payable by the City when such sums are paid by the owner of or the governing body controlling such lots or parcels of land.
