If, upon completion of the improvement, the assessment previously levied on any property is more than sufficient to pay the costs of the improvement, the City Council must ascertain and declare the same by ordinance and, when so declared, the excess amounts must be entered on the lien docket as a credit upon the appropriate assessment. In the event that any assessment has been paid, the person who paid, or his or her legal representative, is entitled to repayment of the rebate credit, or the portion which exceeds the amount unpaid on the original assessment.
