Thereafter, the city will enter a deferred credit in an amount equal to cost of the extension less the prorated amount represented by the length of frontage of the property owned by the applicant and any existing public street.

b.	Thereafter, the applicant or his successor or assigns will be reimbursed by the city upon collection for fees assessed against the benefitted properties, as service connections are made.

a.	The city council shall first make a determination of either the total area or number of potential connections which is to be benefitted by the oversized facility. Thereafter, the city shall enter a deferred credit in an amount equal to the cost of the actual cost of constructing that portion of oversized line or facility which is in excess of the cost of the standard line or facility, less a prorated share of the cost of the oversized facility in an amount equal to the proportion of the territory or number of potential connections (as applicable) within the defined service area which is owned by the applicant.

b.	Thereafter, the applicant or his successors or assignee will be reimbursed by the city upon collection of fees assessed against the benefitted properties as service connections are made thereto. The period for which the applicant shall remain eligible shall be as determined by agreement between the city and the applicant.
