Streets and Highways Code section 5370

Whenever the resolution of intention declares that a contribution of labor or of labor and any portion of materials, supplies or equipment for the proposed work will be made by any local, State or National agency or authority, an assessment shall be made to cover the sum due for furnishing the materials, supplies or equipment as specified in the contract including all incidental expenses. In all other particulars the assessment shall be made in conformity with this part relating to district assessments. However, if all of the work described in the resolution of intention is not completed because the agency or authority ceases to furnish the labor provided for in the resolution of intention, for a period of 90 days, the street superintendent shall notify the legislative body of such cessation in writing. The legislative body may by resolution declare the contract terminated and order the superintendent of streets to make the assessment to cover the portions of work completed and incidental expenses incurred, in accordance with the benefits to be received by each of the several lots or parcels of land in the district, pursuant to the provisions of this part relating to district assessments.
