The Council, in adopting a method of assessment of the costs of the improvement, may:
(A) Use any method of apportioning the sum to be assessed as is just and reasonable among the properties determined to be specially benefitted;
(B) Authorize payment by the city of all or any part of cost of any improvement when in the opinion of the Council, on account of topographical or physical conditions, unusual or excessive public travel, other character of work involved or when the Council otherwise believes the situation warrants it; provided the method selected creates a reasonable relation between the benefits derived by the property specially assessed and the benefits derived by the city as a whole; and
(C) Nothing herein contained shall preclude the Council from using other available means of financing improvements, including federal or state grants-in-aid, sewer service or other types of service charges, revenue bonds, general obligation bonds or other legal means of finance. In the event any of the other means of finance are used, the Council may, in is discretion, levy special assessments hereunder according to benefits to cover any part of the costs of the improvement not covered by such means.
