(1) The municipality and its governing body may provide for the construction of and payment for improvements on the pedestrian mall through an improvement district under part 6 of this article, or by creation of an improvement district which can levy special assessments under other authority, or by other lawful means. The cost of the improvements shall be the cost of construction and may include the damages or compensation paid to obtain the mall area. The municipality may also pay all or any part of the cost of improving a pedestrian mall from its general funds or from any other source of moneys available to it. (2) A pedestrian mall established or to be established pursuant to this part 4 may be so improved either concurrently with the proceedings taken under this part 4 for the establishment of a pedestrian mall or at any time subsequent thereto, but no contract for the work or any improvement shall be awarded until the claims for damages or compensation for establishing the mall have been fully paid or properly secured as provided in this part 4. (3) The governing body may combine any part of the proceedings taken pursuant to this part 4 with any part of the proceedings taken under any law allowing for the assessment of and payment of the damages and for the construction of and payment for improvements to the end that duplication of ordinances, resolutions, notices, hearings, and other acts or proceedings may be avoided.
