§ 248. Establishment and maintenance authorized; assessments
The City Council is authorized, to establish, construct, and maintain public sewers
in said City; and it may assess the owners of land or buildings adjoining or abutting
said streets or any portion thereof in which such sewers may be established so much
of the expense of constructing such sewers as it shall adjudge such land or buildings
to be benefited thereby, but in no case shall the expense of construction of any such
sewer be assessed against the abutting owner on either side of any such street or
any portion thereof in excess of one-fourth of such expense and the City shall pay
