Sec. 40-21 of the Marquette City Code requires that: “When an improvement shall have been made by the City upon or in respect to any single premises, the expense of which is chargeable against such premises and the owner thereof under the provisions of this chapter and is not of that class required to be prorated among several lots and parcels of land in a special assessment district, an account of the cost to be charged to the owner shall be reported to the City Treasurer who shall immediately bill the owner, if known.”

The City Code further requires that, “When the City Treasurer determines that a number of properties have had outstanding bills for a sufficient time, the Treasurer shall notify the City Assessor who shall prepare a single lot assessment roll, and schedule a public hearing before the City Commission on that roll.”

Impacted property owners will receive notification of the time and place of the hearing in accordance with Section 40-21 of the City Code.
