assessments - Altering assessments - Limitations.
At the regular or special meeting of the governing body at which the assessment list is to be
acted upon, any person aggrieved by the determination of the special assessment commission
in regard to any assessment who has appealed therefrom as provided in section 40-23-14 may
appear before the governing body and present the person's reasons why the action of the
commission should not be confirmed. The governing body shall hear and determine the appeals
and objections and may increase or diminish any of such assessments as it may deem just,
except that the aggregate amount of all the assessments returned by the commission shall not
be changed and no assessments as adjusted shall exceed the benefits to the parcel of land on
which it is assessed as determined by the assessment commission.
