owners and their property, and the said Board having considered the evidence and it appearing therefrom
that the strict application of the front foot rule or plan, whereby each owner is to be assessed in propor-
tion as the frontage of his property is to the whole frontage improved, would operate unjustly in par-
ticular cases and that the apportionment and assessment hereinafter made will effect substantial equality
and justice between property owners, having in view benefits received by and burdens imposed upon
such owners, and said apportionment is hereby adopted.
(2) That there is, and shall be, assessed against each of the owners of abutting property hereinbe-
low named, and against the several parcels of property of said owners hereinbelow described as their
