At the time of the passage of the ordinance determining to proceed with the improvements as herein before provided, City Council shall determine whether the claims for damages so filed shall be allowed and paid or shall be judicially inquired into as to the proposed improvement. If City Council decides that the damages shall be assessed as a result of the project, the Director of Law shall then make a written application to the court of common pleas, or to the probate court, for the summoning of a jury to determine such damages, and the judge shall direct that a jury be summoned as is provided for the appropriation of property and fix the time and place for inquiry into and assessment of such damages, which inquiry and assessment shall be confined to such claims.
