NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION:
Section 1. That the assessable cost and apportionment of the same, as hereinabove set forth, is hereby assessed against all the real estate in said District, and to and upon each lot or tract of land within said District, and against such persons in the portions and amounts which are severally hereinbefore set forth and described.
Section 2. That said assessments, together with all interests and penalties for default in payment thereof, and all cost of collecting the same, shall from the time of final publication of this Ordinance, constitute a perpetual lien against each lot of land herein described, on a parity with the tax lien for general, State, County, City and school taxes, and no sale of such property to enforce any general, State, County, City or school tax or other lien shall extinguish the perpetual lien of such assessment.
Section 3. That said assessment shall be due and payable within thirty (30) 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 considered and held 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 or 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 (10) equal annual installments of the principal. The first of said installments of principal shall be payable at the time the next installment of general taxes, by the laws of the State of Colorado, is payable, and each annual installment shall be paid on or before the same date each year thereafter, along with simple interest which has accrued at the rate of 8 percent per annum on the unpaid principal, payable annually.
Section 5. That the failure to pay any installments, 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 8 percent per annum until the day of sale, as by law provided; but at any time prior to the date of sale, the owner may pay the amount of such delinquent installment or installments, with interest at 8 percent per annum 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 installments may at any time pay the whole of the unpaid principal with interest accrued.
Section 6. That payment may be made to the City Finance Director at any time within thirty days after the final publication of this Ordinance, and an allowance of the six percent added for cost of collection and other incidentals shall be made on all payments made during said period of thirty days.
Section 7. That the monies remaining in the hands of the City Finance Director as the result of the operation and payments under Alley Improvement District No. ST-00, Phase A, shall be retained by the Finance Director and shall be used thereafter for the purpose of further funding of past or subsequent improvement districts which may be or may become in default.
Section 8. That all provisions of Ordinance No. 178 of the City of Grand Junction, as amended, being Chapter 28 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Grand Junction, Colorado, shall govern and be taken to be a part of this Ordinance with respect to the creation of said Alley Improvement District No. ST-00 Phase A, the construction of the improvements therein, the apportionment and assessment of the cost thereof and the collection of such assessments.
Section 9. That this Ordinance, after its introduction and first reading shall be published once in full 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 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 signature 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 provided by the Charter of the City of Grand Junction.
