III. In providing for and making the improvements hereby ordered, the City Council of the City of Pearland deems it advisable and here- by elects and determines to proceed under and by the exercise of the powers, terms and provisions named in Chapter 106 of the Acts of the First Called Session of the 40th Legislature of the State of Texas, as amended, which is known as Article 1105b of Vernon's Revised Civil Statutes of Texas, which is hereby adopted by the City of Pearland for all purposes necessary or incidental to the construction of said improvements, and to the levying of special assessments for the property owner's portion of the cost of such improvemets, and the provisions of which Statute are hereby incorporated by reference for all appropriate purposes as if copied herein. IV. A. A portion of the cost of said improvements shall be paid for by assessment against the properties abutting on the portion of the streets named above, and against the real and true owners there- of, in accordance with Article 1105b, Vernon's Revised Civil Statutes of Texas, in amount to be determined at the hearing provided by said law. B. The City of Pearland shall pay all of the remainder of the cost of said improvements after deducting the amounts determined to be assessed against the abutting properties and the real and true owners thereof. C. There is included within the meaning of the term "costs" or "costs of the improvement" or "costs of the remaining improvements", when such terms are used herein, Engineer's or Attorney's fees, if any, and all other costs and expenses incident to the construction of the improvements. V. A. The amounts payable by the abutting properties and by the real and true owners thereof and assessed against such properties shall constitute a personal liability of the real and true owners of such properties and shall be secured by a firstand prior Ilien from this date forward upon such properties, which lien shall be prior to all other liens and claims execept those securing the payment of state, city, school district and county ad valorem taxes. When the improvements have been completed and have been accepted by the City of Pearland by ordinance in or as to any part of same, as defined in such ordinance, the amount payable by or assessed against the properties abutting on the portions of the streets to be improved and against the real and true owners thereof shall be due and payable on or before ten (10) days from the date the improvements have been accepted by the City by Ordinance. Upon failure of any person to pay said assessments when due, reasonable attorney's fees and costs of collection shall also be payable to the City if incurred in collecting such assessment, as well as interest after default at the rate of 8% per annum until paid. B. No assessment shall in any case be made against any abutting property or the real and true owners thereof in excess of the special benefits to accrue to such property in the enhanced value thereof resulting from said improvements. C. In the levying and making of said assessments, if the name of the owner be unknown, it shall be sufficient to state the fact; and if any property be owned by an estate, or by any firm or corporation, it shall be sufficient to so state, and it shall not be necessary to give the correct name of any owner, but the real and true owner of the property assessed shall be liable and the assessment against the property shall be valid whether or not such owner is correctly named. Assessments against several parcels of property may be made in one assessment when owned by the same person, firm or corporation or estate, and property owned jointly by one or more persons, firms or corporations may be assessed jointly. The omission of improvements in front of any parcel or parcels of property upon which a valid assessment lien may not be levied shall in no wise affect or impair the validity of the assessments against the other abutting properties. D. In any case where valid assessments may not be levied against abutting property and the ownerthereof or the City is otherwise unable to finance the construction of improvements on any part of the portion of such street to be improved, then such part may be deleted from the street improvement program and plan and all such improvements in such unit may be eliminated from the project, at the opti n of the City, or, at the option of the City, improvements on such part may be postponed or delayed until such time as adequate finances are avail- able, either through assessment or otherwise. In the event such improvements are finally and permanently omitted from the street improvement program and plan, the lien on properties abutting said part omitted shall be released. VI.
