§ 94-6. Same—Initiation by property owners.

After public hearings, the county commission may adopt and enact, if it so desires, all appropriate and legally required ordinances or resolutions to make the improvements or provide the services designated in the written petition. The board, however, must first make a finding that:

(1)

Fifty percent or more of the votes received in response to the petition were favorable, or the proposed improvements set forth in the petition are deemed by the county staff or the board of county commissioners to address specific need within the area of the proposed improvement;

(2)

The improvements or services designated have an ascertainable special benefit to the properties to be assessed; and

(3)

The special assessment is reasonably apportioned among the properties that are deemed to benefit specially from the improvements.
