The in-lieu payment shall be based on the actual cost of the Yuma Road Bridge if it has been constructed by others, or if the payment is required before the Yuma Road Bridge has been constructed, it shall be based on the estimated cost of the Yuma Road Bridge as determined by the City Engineer or designee.
