A resolution of preliminary determination shall be adopted describing in general terms the intention to proceed under this Chapter, the procedural alternative to be followed, the proposed improvements or acquisitions involved, the estimated costs of such improvements or acquisitions, whether the assessment is to be levied on all real property or on land only, the amount, based upon the estimated costs, to be assessed against each particular parcel, the maximum amount of bonds, if any, to be issued to finance the proposed improvements or acquisitions. The resolution shall also state that any person interested may file a protest in writing with the City Clerk containing therein a description of the property in which the signer thereof is interested sufficient to identify the same and, if the signers are not shown on the last equalized assessment roll as the owners of such property, must contain or be accompanied by written evidence that such signers are the owners of such property. The resolution shall also set a time and place when and where any and all persons interested may appear and show cause, if they have any, why the Mayor and Common Council should not find and determine that the public convenience and necessity require the formation of the proposed improvement district and the proposed acquisitions or improvements without compliance with the Special Assessment Investigation, Limitation and Majority Protest Act of 1931, sometimes referred to in this Chapter as "Investigation Act."
