The Charter initially required the City to have a special <br />assessment Pr~Pcedure modeled after State Statute 429. Since that time, it became evident that §429 <br />was amend~l~uit~ frequently. Most cities comply with §429 and it makes sense to be in sync and <br />adopt §429 asiopposed to ordinances to try to keep up with such statute.
