Any amounts which may be paid or payable by the city under the provisions of chapter 287 to a member or to the dependents of a member on account of any disability or death shall be offset against and payable in lieu of any benefits payable out of funds provided by the city under the provisions of sections 87.120 to 87.370 on account of the same disability or death.
