all assessments, however, are to be made and levied by the
Board of Aldermen as it may seem just and equitable having
in view the special benefits in enhanced value to be re-
ceived by such parcels of property and the owners thereof,
the equities of such owners and the adjustment of the ap-
portionate cost of improvements so as to produce a substan-
tial equity of benefits received and burdenes imposed.
