for all the cost of constructing curbs in front of such respective property and a
part of the remaining cost of such improvements, after deducting the sums to be
paid by the railways under sub—paragraph (a) above, provided that such part of the
costs assessed to the abutting property or owners thereof shall not exceed 90%
of the cost of the improvements plus the cost of the curb, and further provided
that if it shall appear at the hearing to be had before final assessment is made
that the special benefits to such property by way of enhancement value thereof
by means of such improvements will not aggregate such proportion of the cost as
specified above, then there shall be assessed and be paid by such abutting propert
and the owners thereof, a lesser amount not to exceed the benefits.
(c) The remaining cost of said improvements, after deducting the sums finally
assessed against railways and street railways under sub—paragraph (a) hereof,
