The required improvements shall be furnished and installed at the sole expense of the applicant. However, in cases where the City Council would by general policy only assess a part of the improvement cost to the improved property with the remaining cost paid out of general tax levy, the City Council may make provision for payment of a portion of the cost by the applicant and the remaining portion of the cost by the City; and provide further, that if any improvement installed within the subdivision will be of substantial benefit to lands beyond the boundaries of the subdivision, the City Council may make provision for causing a portion of the cost of the improvement, representing the benefit of such lands, to be assessed against the same and in such case the applicant will be required only to pay for such portion of the whole cost of said improvement as will represent the benefit to the property within the subdivision.
