§ 280-s. Increase and improvement of facilities. Whenever the

governing body shall determine it necessary to acquire additional lands

or interests in lands or to acquire or to construct dunes, bluffs,

bulkheads, dikes, groins, jetties, fills or other works including all

necessary facilities and equipment appurtenant thereto; or whenever the

governing body shall determine it necessary for the proper maintenance

and service of such facilities to increase, improve or reconstruct the

facilities thereof, including the acquisition of additional lands, or

interests in land therefor, it may cause the same to be accomplished

without further authorization, provided, however, that if it is proposed

to finance any part of the cost thereof by the issuance and sale of

capital notes or serial bonds, such improvement shall not be undertaken

unless authorized by proceedings taken in the same manner as the

proceedings taken for the original establishment of the district, except

that the sole determination which the governing body shall make is

whether such improvement is in the public interest, and if zones of

assessment have been established, said governing body shall further

determine the allocation of the cost thereof as between such zones.
