WHEREAS, The City Council has heretofore caused to be published the notice of the completion of said improvement in said Paving District No. 18, and the apportionment of the cost thereof to all persons interested and to the owners of real estate which is described therein, said real estate comprising the district of land known as Paving District No. 18, in the City of Grand Junction, Colorado, which said notice was caused to be published in The Daily Sentinel, the official newspaper of the City of Grand Junction (the first publication thereof appearing January 20th, 1928, and the last publication thereof appearing January 23rd, 1928); and

 

WHEREAS, Said notice recited the share to be apportioned to and upon each lot and tract of land, and other real estate, and recited that complaints or objections might be made in writing to the Council and filed with the Clerk within thirty days from the first publication of said notice, to-wit: On or before and up to 5:00 o'clock P.

WHEREAS, Pursuant to said notice, no written complaints were filed with respect to the proposed assessment of the cost of said improvements; and

 

WHEREAS, The City Council has duly confirmed the statement prepared by the City Council and certified by the President of the Council, showing the whole cost of said improvements and the apportionment thereof heretofore made as contained in that certain notice to property owners in Paving District No. 18, duly published in The Daily Sentinel, the official newspaper of the City, and has duly ordered that the cost of said paving and improvements in said Paving District No. 18, be assessed and apportioned against all of the real estate in said district; and

Section 2. That said assessments are hereby declared to be a lien in the several amounts herein assessed against each lot or tract of land herein described, or other real estate herein described, within said District and within the limits of the City of Grand Junction, from the final publication of this ordinance, and shall have priority over all other liens, except general taxes.

 

Section 3. That said assessments shall be due and payable within thirty days after the final publication of this ordinance without demand; provided, that all such assessments may, at the election of the owner, be paid in installments with interest as hereinafter provided. Failure to pay the whole assessment within the said period of thirty days shall be conclusively considered and held an election on the part of all persons interested, whether under disability or otherwise, to pay in such installments. All persons so electing to pay in installments shall be conclusively considered and held as consenting to said improvements, and such election shall be conclusively held and considered as a waiver of any and all rights to question the power and jurisdiction of the City to construct the improvements, the quality of the work, and the regularity of sufficiency of the proceedings, or the validity or correctness of the assessment.

 

Section 4. That in case of such election to pay in installments, the assessments shall be payable in ten equal annual installments of the principal, with interest upon unpaid installments payable semi-annually at the rate of four and one-half per cent per annum. The first of said installments of said principal shall be due on the 1st day of March, A. D. 1928, and shall be payable on or before said day, and the remainder of said installments shall be due on the 1st day of March, of each year thereafter until all of said installments are paid in full.

 

Section 5. That the failure to pay any installment, whether of principal or interest, as herein provided, when due, shall cause the whole unpaid principal to become due and payable immediately and the whole amount of the unpaid principal and accrued interest shall thereafter draw interest at the rate of one per cent per month or fraction of a month until the day of sale, as by law provided, but at any time prior to the day of sale the owner may pay the amount of all delinquent installments, with interest at one per cent per month or fraction of a month as aforesaid, and all penalties accrued, and shall thereupon be restored to the right thereafter to pay in installments in the same manner as if default had not been suffered. The owner of any piece of real estate not in default as to any installment may at any time pay the whole of the unpaid principal, with interest accrued.

 

Section 6. That payment may be made to the City Treasurer at any time within thirty days after the final publication of this ordinance and an allowance of the two per cent added for cost of collection and other incidentals and of the interest from the date of payment to the 29th day of February, A. D. 1928, shall be made on all payments made during said period of thirty days.

 

Section 7. That all the provisions of Ordinance No. 178 of the City of Grand Junction, as amended, shall govern and be taken to be a part of this ordinance with respect to the creation of said Paving District No. 18, the construction of the improvements therein, the apportionment and assessment of the cost thereof and the collection of such assessment.

 

Section 8. That this ordinance, after its introduction and first reading shall be published once in full and in the Daily Sentinel, the official newspaper of the City at least ten days before its final passage, and after its final passage it shall again be published once in the Daily Sentinel, the official newspaper of the City, and after its final passage shall be numbered and recorded in the City ordinance record, and a certificate of such adoption and publication shall be authenticated by the certificate of the publisher and the signatures of the President of the Council and the City Clerk, and shall be in full force and effect on and after the date of such final publication, except as otherwise by the Charter of the City of Grand Junction provided.

 

Introduced and read at a regular adjourned meeting of the City Council held on the 21st day of February, A. D. 1928.

 

Adopted and approved the 7th day of March, A. D. 1928.
