16-635. Improvements; terms, defined; depth to which assessable.

The word lot as used herein shall be taken to mean lot as described and designated upon the record plat of any such city, or within a county industrial area as defined in section 13-1111 contiguous to such city; and in case there is no recorded plat of any such city or county industrial area, it shall mean a lot as described and designated upon any generally recognized map of any such city or county industrial area. The word land shall mean any subdivided or unplatted real estate in such city or county industrial area; Provided, if the lots and real estate abutting upon that part of the street ordered improved, as shown upon any recorded plat or map, are not of uniform depth, or, if for any reason, it shall appear just and proper to the mayor and council, they are authorized and empowered to determine and establish the depth to which such real estate shall be charged and assessed with the costs of the improvement, which shall be determined and established according to the benefits accruing to the property by reason of such improvements. Real estate may be so charged and assessed to a greater depth than lots as shown on any such plat or map.
