A. If any property in the area designated as a proposed improvement district in a petition filed pursuant to section 14.40.020 is proposed to be improved by installation of any improvement which is or will be required pursuant to the provisions of section 18.20.010 through 18.20.140 and 18.20.240 , the petition must be signed and acknowledged by the owner of such property and the final plat of the subdivision must be recorded with the Bureau of Conveyances and the Department of Taxation of the state prior to the final passage of the ordinance levying assessments. In the event the subdivision contains lots zoned for single-family residential use, the petition must include a stipulation that such owner will enter into an agreement with the county containing provisions satisfactory to the director of planning and the director of public works pertaining to the ratio between the amount assessed upon each such lot and the price for which each such lot will be sold. If such petition is accepted by the council, the preliminary report shall include proposed provisions of such agreement and the resolution creating the proposed improvement district shall not be adopted until such agreement containing the proposed provisions, or such variations thereof as the council determines to be advisable, has been executed. B. After adoption of the resolution creating the proposed improvement district and receipt of construction bids, if the owner of such property consents in writing to the amounts proposed to be assessed upon each subdivision lot, then for the purpose of sections 18.20.180 through 18.20.220 , the creation of the improvement district and the consent shall be deemed to constitute other security which may be accepted by the planning director and approved by the county attorney. (Ord. 801 § 1 (part), 1974: prior code § 25-2.2.3)
