. Before ordering any changes made, the legislative body shall
adopt a resolution briefly describing the changes proposed to be
made, stating the amount of the estimated increase or decrease in the
cost of the work by reason of the proposed changes and giving notice
of a time and place when and where any interested person having any
objection to the changes proposed to be made may appear before the
legislative body and show cause why the changes should not be
ordered. The resolution shall also contain the name and telephone
number of a local department or agency designated by the legislative
body to answer inquiries regarding the hearing proceedings. Such
notice shall be omitted if the hearing of objections is not required
as provided hereunder. The resolution may describe the changes by
referring to maps, plats, plans, profiles, detailed drawings, or
specifications on file in the office of the clerk or engineer, which
shall indicate the changes proposed to be made and which shall govern
for all details thereof. The resolution shall be published pursuant
to Section 6061 of the Government Code, at least 10 days prior to the
date of the hearing.
The hearing of objections shall not be required if the legislative
body, when considering passage of the resolution, finds and
determines by a four-fifth's vote of all members thereof, that all of
the owners of lots or lands liable to be assessed, or their agents,
who shall make oath that they are such agents, have signed and filed
a petition waiving the hearing, with the clerk, on or before the
fifth day prior to the day that the resolution is considered for
passage, declaring that they do not have any objections to the
proposed changes and requesting that the hearing of objections shall
not be required.
