In addition, not  less than  ten nor more than thirty days before the date set for the hearing, the legislative body shall cause a copy of the resolution or  a  summary thereof  to be mailed to each owner of real property within the proposed district at the address shown on the latest municipal  assessment  roll, to such other persons as are registered with the municipality to receive tax  bills  concerning real property within the proposed district and to the tenants of each  building  within  the  proposed  district.
