The city commission in order to ascertain whether or not a reasonable number of property
owners to be assessed desire any particular improvement to be made, may request and
receive a petition therefor, or may receive such a petition voluntarily presented,
but in either event, such petition shall be advisory only and shall not be jurisdictional,
except in cases where such a petition is specially made jurisdictional by law. Such
petition shall be submitted on forms approved by the city commission. The city shall
not be required to construct any improvement petitioned for, and the city may proceed
to construct an improvement without a petition having been filed or without 51 percent
of the properties to be specially assessed having signed a petition upon a finding
by the city commission that the improvement will promote or protect the health, safety
and welfare of some of the residents of the city.
