Such improvements in each unit shall be paid for in the following manner:1
1. The abutting property and owners thereof shall pay and shall be assessed
for all the cost of constructing curbs in front of such respective property and
a part of the remaining cost of such improvements, provided that such part of
the costs assessed to the abutting property or owners thereof shall not exceed
90% of the cost of the improvements plus the cost of the curb, and further pro-
vided that if it shall appear at the hearing to be had before final assessment is
made that the special benefits to such property by way of enhanced value thereof
by means of such improvements will not aggregate such proportion of the cost as
specified above, then there shall be assessed and be paid by such abutting
property and the owners thereof, a lesser amount not to exceed the benefits.
2. The remaining cost of said improvements, after deducting the sums
finally assessed against abutting property and the owners thereof under sub-
paragraph 1 above, shall be paid by the City of Lubbock.

the owners thereof shall be.payable in three equal installments: the first of
which shall become due on or before 20 days after completion and acceptance of the
improvements in the unit on which the property abuts by the City Council; the
second and third one and two years respectively after completion and acceptance
of the improvements in the unit upon which the property abuts, by the City Council,
and shall bear interest from the date of completion and acceptance until paid,
at the rate of six percent per annum on street improvements and seven percent per
annum on alley improvements payable annually, with provisions that if default be
made in the payment of any installment promptly as the same matures; then at the
option of the holder of such assessment or certificate issued in evidence thereof
such default shall mature the entire assessment upon which same is made.
