§ 60-42. Hearing set; publication of notice.

(a)

Publication. At or after the adoption and entry of record of any such resolution (described in section 60-41), the director of water services shall, by order, fix a day upon which a hearing in respect to such improvement shall be had, which day shall be within 30 days after the date when such order is made. The director shall also cause to be published for six days in the newspaper at the time doing the city printing, and if there be no such paper, then in any other newspaper published in the city, a notice of the proposed improvement. Such notice shall recite briefly the fact that such improvement is proposed, the general nature thereof, the sewer district or districts within which, such improvement is proposed to be made, and that a hearing concerning the same will be had by the said director, at his office, or other place designated in the notice, and the date upon which the hearing shall be had.

(b)

Mailing to property owners. The director of the water services department shall also cause a notice of proposed improvement to construct such proposed sewers and related appurtenances thereto to be sent by mail to every owner whose property will be subject to assessment. Such notice should include information required by state statutes. Names of such property owners shall be determined and taken from the assessment and levy of general taxes by the city; but no defect or mistake in the records or in the description therein of the lots or in the name of such apportionment shall impair the validity of the assessments, liens or bills issued pursuant to this article. The absence of proof that such notice was sent or received shall not affect the validity of the proceedings, or of any special assessment thereafter made, so long as the published notice specified in subsection (a) of this section has been properly accomplished.
