Whenever the City Council shall decide it is in the general health, safety and/or welfare of its citizens, upon its own motion or upon the signed petition of the owners of more than one-half of the property to benefit from the public improvement, the Council may construct any public improvement and repair or otherwise maintain or relay the same whenever it may deem that the public health, safety and/or welfare interest may require. The Council may then assess all or part of the cost thereof on the property benefitted directly by the improvement or repair, ordering the improvement or repair of the same in the manner herein provided.
