It may increase or decrease the assessment of all property or of any class of property by a uniform percentage, in which case the requirement of notice and hearing shall not apply, but a notice of such blanket increase or decrease shall be inserted once in the official city newspaper.

(b)  The members of the board may receive such compensation on a per diem basis for each day of duty as provided by ordinance.
