a development, subject to the following:
1. Such credit shall be only for the improvement fee charged for the type of improvement being
constructed, and credit for qualified public improvements under Section 11.12.030(F)(2) may be
granted only for the cost of that portion of such improvement that exceeds the city's minimum
standard facility size or capacity needed to serve the particular development property or project.
The applicant shall have the burden of demonstrating that a particular improvement qualifies as
a Section 11.12.030(F)(2) qualified public improvement.
2. When the construction of a qualified public improvement gives rise to a credit amount greater
than the improvement fee that would otherwise be levied against the project receiving
