8.5   Additional credit for past contribution or charge

      For a past contribution and or charge relating to “current” trunk infrastructure that has
      been paid for a particular trunk network under a previous charging regime that exceeds
      the credit applied under section 8.4 (Credit), an “additional credit” against the adopted
      charge for the particular network will be recognised. The amount of the credit will be
      determined by converting the previous payment to an equivalent adopted charge as
      determined by Council and only relates to the amount over and above the standard credit
      applied under section 8.4 (credit).

      The amount of the credit will not be more than the adopted charge amount apportioned for
      that network. The onus remains with the applicant to provide full details and evidence of
      any payments of contributions and or charges under a previous charging regime.
