If a legislative body determines to proceed under this part in forming an assessment district pursuant to the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Division 12 (commencing with Section 10000)), it shall, in addition to complying with all requirements of that act, do all of the following:
(a)
State in the resolution of intention that it adopts pursuant to Section 10200 that it intends to comply with the requirements of the Special Assessment Investigation, Limitation and Majority Protest Act of 1931 by proceeding under this part.
(b)
Direct that all of the following information be included in the report prepared pursuant to Section 10204:
(1)
The total amount, as near as may be determined, of the total principal sum of all unpaid special assessments and special assessments required or proposed to be levied under any completed or pending assessment proceedings, other than that contemplated in the instant proceedings, which would require an investigation and report under this division against the total area proposed to be assessed.
(2)
The total true value, as near as may be determined, of the parcels of land and improvements which are proposed to be assessed. Total true value may be estimated as the full cash value of the parcels as shown upon the last equalized assessment roll of the county. Alternatively, total true value may be determined by other reasonable means, including, but not limited to, by adjusting the value shown on the last equalized assessment roll to correct for deviations from market value due to Article XIII
A of the California Constitution.
(c)
Include in the notice sent pursuant to Section 10307 a statement of the total principal amount of unpaid assessments already levied against all the property proposed to be assessed, as computed in the project report.
(d)
Before confirming the assessment pursuant to Section 10311, the legislative body shall find that the total amount of the principal sum of all unpaid special assessments levied against the parcels proposed to be assessed, as computed pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (b), plus the principal amount of the special assessment proposed to be levied in the instant proceedings, do not exceed one-half of the total value of the parcels proposed to be assessed, as computed pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (b). The finding and determination of the legislative body shall be final and conclusive in the absence of fraud.
