district any territory the inhabitants of which would not be
benefited by the proposed improvements as finally determined.
4603. This chapter does not affect any other law under which
improvements may be made within or by any city but it provides an
alternate system of proceedings for sewer work or improvement.
Improvements may be made either pursuant to this chapter, or pursuant
to any other law. If, however, any proceedings are commenced

made under those proceedings until such improvement is completed.
If, after an improvement has been made pursuant to this chapter,
the governing body of any city determines that it is necessary or
convenient to make any additional improvement, the governing body may
proceed to do so either pursuant to this chapter or under any other
appropriate law. If the additional improvement is made pursuant to
this chapter for the same district, the procedure shall be the same
as that which is provided under this chapter for the making of the
initial improvement. It is not necessary to reform the district if
the governing body finds, following the hearing which is provided for
by Section 4611 that the additional improvement is of benefit to the
entire district which was previously formed under this chapter as
such district is then constituted. As an alternative method, the
governing body may make such additional improvement by forming a new
district pursuant to this chapter which may include, in whole or in
part, territory which is included in any district previously formed
pursuant to this chapter.
