In accordance with the provisions of this chapter, when a petition signed by 100 percent of the owners of property in a proposed local improvement district is filed with the city clerk, asking that the improvement therein described be ordered, the hearing examiner shall forthwith fix a date for hearing thereon and the designated official shall order the publication of notice and give notice by mail. After such hearing, the city council shall, by ordinance meeting the requirements of this chapter, order the improvement, and may alter the boundaries of the proposed district; provided, however, that no protest satisfying the provisions of this chapter is received; and provided further, that no such improvement shall be ordered unless the same appears to the city council to be financially and economically feasible; and provided further, that the city council may require as a condition to ordering such improvement or to making its determination as to the financial and economic feasibility, that all or a portion of such engineering, legal or other costs incurred or to be incurred by the city in determining financial and economic feasibility shall be borne or guaranteed by the petitioners of the proposed local improvement district under such rules as the city may adopt. No person shall withdraw his name from the petition after the same has been filed with the city.

Nothing in this section modifies applicable provisions regarding establishment of the assessment roll for a local improvement district formed pursuant to this section. (Ord. 5884 § 2, 2009.)
