Except as provided in article 4 of this chapter (s. 40:56-58 et seq.), as to cities of the first class, in addition to the making of assessments for benefits the said officer, board or commissioners, or a majority of such board or commission, shall also at the same time fix and determine the amount, if any, that any property is damaged incidentally to the making of the improvement, but exclusive of damages for real estate taken, and the amount of such incidental damages accruing to any real estate shall be deducted from the amount of any benefits assessed thereon.
