That pursuant to and subject to the provisions of a valid Petition signed by the owners of one hundred percent (100%) of the Project Site, the entire cost of the Project shall be paid by the Special Assessments levied against the Project Site, which is the benefited property. The provisions of the Petition and the Supplemental Plan are ratified, adopted, approved and incorporated into this Resolution as if set forth in full in this Resolution. The portion of the costs of the Project allocable to the City will be zero percent (0%). The City does not intend to issue securities in anticipation of the levy or the collection of the Special Assessments.

That the method of levying the Special Assessments shall be in proportion to the benefits received, allocated among the parcels constituting the Project Site as set forth in the Petition and the Supplemental Plan.

In addition to the Special Assessments, the County Auditor of Montgomery County, Ohio may impose a special assessment collection fee with respect to each semi-annual payment, which amount will be added to the Special Assessments by the County Auditor of Montgomery County, Ohio.
