In all cases where payments in lieu of improvements are made under this chapter, or where the provisions of this section are referred to and made applicable elsewhere in this chapter, the amount thereof shall be determined by the City Engineer to reflect the estimated cost of making the required improvements. To assist the City Engineer in estimating such cost, the permittee may be required to retain the services of an engineer, whose design estimates of quantity and cost can then be checked by the City Engineer to determine their accuracy, completeness, and conformance to City standards.
