"Section 1. General Powers. Any part

tricts for the acquisition, construction,

pair, management, reconstruction, administra-

districts, including, without limitation, the
acquisition of capacity rights in the City's
sewage treatment plant.
(b) Employ engineers, attorneys, and
other persons necessary or convenient for the
doing of any act authorized by this Ordi-
nance.
(c) Do all acts and things necessary or
convenient for the accomplishment of the
purposes of this Ordinance.
(d) In proceeding under this Ordinance
and the Acts for a Project which involves
both acquisition of existing improvements and
the construction of new improvements, the
Mayor and Common Council may proceed on the
basis of the City Engineer's estimate of the
costs thereof and the provisons of the Acts
relating to any requirement for completed
plans and specifications prior to the con-
firmation and recording of the assessments
and the issuance of the bonds shall not
apply. "
Section 2. Amendment. Section 18 of Ordinance
No. 3902 shall be amended to read as follows:
"Section 18. Effective Date. This
Ordinance is an urgency measure and shall
take effect upon adoption. The facts consti-
tuting such urgency are:
There is a severe unemployment problem
in the City. The City has previously exer-
cised its home rule charter powers in enact-
ing Ordinance No. 3815 to help to combat this
problem and foster employment in the City.
The City is presently in the process of im-
plementing its first efforts under Ordinance
No. 3815. It appears that the installation
of public improvements by the assessment

district method provided hereunder will
greatly facilitate certain developments and
so help the efforts to combat the unemploy-
ment problem in the City. At present, the
limitations and other inconveniences in the
Acts prevent their being used successfully
and with the speed that is necessary and
desirable. Developers have expressed their
need for the assessment district method pro-
vided hereunder, and for the sewer financing
related thereto. It is necessary and desir-
able that such developers be encouraged and
that they proceed as quickly as possible so
that the jobs that will be provided will
become available at the earliest possible
date. In the findings of Ordinance No. 3815
and in the evidenciary material which sup-
ported the same, it appeared that unemploy-
ment was at least a major contributing cause
to crime, juvenile delinquency, private and
public health problems, as well as having
other bad social consequences. Therefore,
the public peace, health and general welfare
of the City and its citizens and inhabitants
require that this Ordinance take effect upon
adoption."
