If the legislative body finds, after taking the steps provided by Sections 2821, 2822 and 2823, that the probable assessments will not exceed the limitations set up by this division, it may cause the clerk to mail prepaid postcards giving notice of its findings and proposed action. Each such notice shall have attached thereto an addressed reply postcard with the return postage thereon guaranteed.

The cards shall be mailed to each person to whom land in the proposed assessment district is assessed on the last equalized county assessment roll available on the date the report is commenced, at his address as shown upon such roll and to any person whether owner in fee or having a lien upon or legal or equitable interest in any land within the proposed district who has filed with the clerk his name and address and the designation of the land in which he is interested.

Terms Used In California Streets and Highways Code 2950

  • County: includes "city and county. See California Streets and Highways Code 14
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
