herein levied shall be made and levied against the respect! ve parcel s of property
abutting upon the said portions of streets, highways, avenues and/or alleys

cerned, considering benefits received and burdens imposed, and further finds

upon which the particular property abuts, and for which assessment is levied,
in a sum in excess of the assessment levied, against same by this ordinance,
and further finds that the apportionment of the cost of the improvements is
in accordance with the proceedings heretofore taken and had with reference
