Fee credits or reimbursements will be based upon estimated costs as shown in an applicable improvement plan, subject to periodic inflation adjustments, except for drainage projects which will be based on the actual cost paid by the developer. Specific information on fee credits and reimbursement is included in the City of Lincoln Public Facilities Element Implementation Plan and Policies which is included in this report in Appendix E.”
