SECTION 6: Notice is hereby given to the owners of all lands and parcels of real estate benefited by the improvements described in Section 3(a) hereof and affected by the improvements described therein, that the Township intends to make and levy special assessments against all such lots and parcels of real estate in an aggregate amount not exceeding $3,684,305. Such special assessments shall be made and levied in the manner provided by law and shall be as nearly as possible in proportion to and not in excess of the peculiar benefit, advantage or increase in value that the respective lots and parcels of real estate shall be deemed to receive by reason of the improvement. It is expected that the Township will contribute $0 to the cost of the improvement; however, if the amount of the special assessments as finally confirmed is less than the sum of $3,684,305, as described in Section 3(a) hereof, then the Township will also contribute the difference to the cost of the improvement.
