(b) Application.--If the cost and expense or any part of the cost and expense of the construction of any permanent street improvement, which has been made under existing laws and which has been aided in its construction from the special fund provided for under this section, has been assessed and collected from the owners of the real property adjoining or abutting upon the improvement, it shall be applied to the credit of the special fund, to the extent of the withdrawal from the special fund for that purpose.
