levied under this section shall become immediately due and payable and
the property against which they are levied may be sold therefor together
with accrued interest thereon and costs to day of sale. If any sale made
hereunder shall be set aside for failure to comply with the terms hereof
that fact shall not bar the right of said town to collect said assessment
and enforce the lien thereof by equitable suit as aforesaid.

(f)     In all cases where the property to be assessed for improvements
under the provisions of this section is located at the intersection of two
streets, constituting what is commonly known as a corner lot, assessment
shall be made for the full frontage of said lot for any improvements abut-
ting thereon; in case the improvements are extended along the side of said
lot the assessment for such improvements shall be made for one-half only
of the lineal frontage thereof. Should any question arise as to the street
upon which said property may front, the decision of the council in regard
thereto shall be final and conclusive. In the case of irregularly shaped lots
not definitely constituting corner lots, where the frontages thereof are
excessive, the council shall make an assessment against fifty feet of said
frontage and against one-half only of the additional frontage thereof.

(g)     Any person or persons desiring the construction of any public
work authorized under the provisions of this section may petition the
council in writing therefor; and if all the abutting property affected is
represented in said petition and the petitioners agree therein to a waiver
of legal requirements hereunder the council may direct the construction
of said work without compliance with said legal requirements and may
assess the cost thereof in accordance herewith as though all legal require-
ments had been complied with, and said construction and assessments are
hereby declared to be legal and valid as in this section provided.

(h) To carry out the provisions of this section, the said council may
borrow such sums from time to time as may be needed to make such im-
provements pursuant to the authority set forth in Section 48-29 of this
Code. Any obligations so incurred shall be general obligations of the City
of Rockville and shall be payable first from the special assessments levied
under the provisions of this section; and, in the event of any deficiency
occurring in the amount received from said special assessment, the council
shall and it is hereby directed to make up such deficiency from the pro-
ceeds of ad valorem taxes which the mayor and council of Rockville shall
levy upon all property within the present or future corporate limits of
the city subject to assessments for full municipal taxation, without any
limitation as to rate or amount.

(i) If, after the (10) years following the construction of any public
improvement, it be necessary, in the judgment of the mayor and council,
to reconstruct said work or to make permanent repairs thereto, such recon-
struction or repairs may be authorized and directed by the council under
the provisions of this section and all or any part of the cost thereof assessed
in accordance herewith. This section shall be applicable to any existing
public work.
