Description
This is an appeal concerning Local Improvement District No. 12 in the City of Laramie, Wyoming, which matter has previously been twice before this court. Mealey v. City of Laramie, Wyo., 472 P.2d 787; Mealey v. City of Laramie, Wyo., 485 P.2d 1019. The "downtown improvement district" was originally created by the adoption of City Ordinance No. 355, to which we referred in our first opinion. However, subsequent to the second case the city went through the procedures to enact an "amended ordinance" (No. 383). After our decision in the second case the city, on August 20, 1971, received bids for the construction of the proposed improvements in Improvement District No. 12, which bids exceeded the statutory cost limitations. Ordinance No. 355 estimated the cost of the improvements at $991,509.30, while the cost estimates in Ordinance No. 383 were $1,119,073.00. Except for a reflection of the cost situation and various changes which would appear to have been an attempted correction of matters with which fault had been found in this courts previous opinion, 472 P.2d 787, 794-795, the amended ordinance was identical in form and language to Ordinance 355. The Page 296 same statutory procedural requirements necessary for initiating an improvement district by the statutory resolution-of-intention method (§ 15.1-337, W.S. 1957, C. 1965) were followed.
