At the time of the adoption of the resolution of intention to establish a district, the council shall direct the director of public works, department of public works, or other appropriate department, officer or officers who is or will be responsible for providing or maintaining one or more of the proposed types of facilities to be financed by the district, if it is established, to study the proposed district and, at or before the time of the hearing (or within sixty days after adoption of the resolution of intention, or such earlier date established by the council, if the hearing is waived pursuant to section 32-24), file a report with the council containing a brief description of the proposed facilities by type which will in their opinion be required to adequately meet the needs of the district, and their estimate of the cost of providing those facilities. In preparing the report, the department or officer may consult with other officers of the County or the State and with any financial feasibility or other consultant retained by the County or any property owner to assist in the procedure or otherwise available. If the purchase of completed facilities or the payment of incidental expenses is proposed, the council shall direct the appropriate officer to estimate the fair and reasonable cost of those facilities or incidental expenses. All of those reports shall be made a part of the record of the hearing on the resolution of intention to establish the district.
