Sec. 552.075. HOME-RULE MUNICIPALITY. A home-rule municipality to which this subchapter applies may adopt plans and specifications for improvements as provided by this subchapter and may pay in cash to the contractor who is the successful bidder that part of the cost assessed against the owner and the benefitted property. The municipality may reimburse itself by levying an assessment against the benefitted property and its owner after notice and hearing as provided by this subchapter. The municipality may reimburse itself up to the amount of the enhancement in value represented by the benefits and as permitted under this subchapter and may issue assignable certificates in favor of the municipality for the assessment. The certificates are enforceable in the manner provided by Section 552.065. The municipality may use its own forces to make the improvements if the work may be performed more expeditiously and economically in that manner.
