* ''Connor v. City of Paris'', 27 S.W. 88, [https://texaslegalguide.com/images/027_SW_88.pdf#page=5 92] (Tex. 1894) ("That the legislature may empower a city to levy upon abutting property an assessment to pay a part of the cost for improving a street upon which such property fronts is too well settled by the decisions of this court to admit of argument. . . . It is claimed that the charter, so far as it authorizes the assessment, is void, because no notice was required to be given by the council before the ordinance was adopted; being in violation of article 3, § 57, of the constitution. This was not a special law, within the meaning of that section, which has reference alone to the acts of the legislature.")
