The petition for the formation of the district under this part may propose that the legislative body shall adopt such an ordinance with respect to any city lands, and may propose improvements to be made or constructed thereon and shall state the amount of compensation, if any, to be paid to the city therefor and the manner in which compensation is to be paid. In the event that the petition proposes that the legislative body adopt such an ordinance with respect to any such city lands, the legislative body either shall reject the petition or, prior to the adoption of the resolution of intention, shall adopt with respect to such city lands the ordinance authorized by this section for the compensation, if any, provided in the petition. Failure of the petition to propose such an ordinance, or to propose such improvements, shall not prevent the legislative body from adopting such an ordinance at any time after the petition shall have been filed. If such ordinance is adopted prior to the adoption of the resolution of intention, whether said ordinance is in response to a proposal made in the petition or otherwise, the resolution of intention, in addition to the other matters required by the part, shall refer to the ordinance, shall contain a general description of such city lands and a general description of the improvements, if any, proposed to be made or constructed thereon, and shall state the amount and manner of payment of any compensation provided for in said ordinance.
