5 Stormwater Management Committee established under Section
6 5-1062 of this Code, and such reasonable requirements with

20 a map, plat or subdivision shall post a good and sufficient
21 bond or other adequate security with the county clerk, in a
22 penal sum sufficient to cover the estimate of expenditures
23 made by the estimating engineer. The bond or other adequate
24 security shall be conditioned upon faithful adherence to the
25 rules and regulations of the county board promulgated
26 pursuant to the authorization granted to it by this Section
27 or by Section 5-1062 of this Code, and in such cases no such
28 map, plat or subdivision shall be entitled to record in the

30 approved. This Section is subject to the provisions of
31 Section 5-1123.
32 The county board may, by resolution, provide a schedule
33 of fees sufficient to reimburse the county for the costs

17 Sec. 5-1041.1. School land and capital facilities
18 donations.
19 (a) The governing board of a school district that is
20 located in a county having a population of less than

22 that a meeting be held to discuss school land donations,

24 subdivision or resubdivision of land included within the area
25 served by the school district. In no event shall a
26 developer's donation of school land, capital facilities, or
27 both exceed his or her proportionate share of the costs to a
28 school district that are specifically and uniquely
29 attributable to the subdivision or resubdivision. In no
30 event shall the total donation required of a developer for
31 school land purposes, capital facilities purposes, or both
32 exceed the developer's maximum required school land donation
33 as authorized in this Section. Each subdivision or
-4- LRB9009298MWcdam
1 resubdivision making a donation must receive a direct and
2 material benefit from school improvements resulting from the
3 school land donation, capital facilities donation, or both.
4 If any portion of a donation is not expended for the purposes
5 set forth in this Section within 10 years after the date of
6 final plat approval, it shall be refunded to the party who
7 made the donation. Refunds shall be provided only when the
8 payee presents a written request addressed to the effected
9 school district or Regional Superintendent of Schools within
10 the 11th year following the payment. Funds collected under
11 the provisions in this Section must be transferred to the
12 school district within 90 days after the date of collection.
13 (b) For purposes of this Section:
14 "School land donation" means a donation of land for
15 public school purposes, a cash contribution in lieu of a
16 donation of land, or a combination of both.

23 associated with school expansion such as architectural,
24 engineering, or recapture fees. A capital facilities donation
25 shall not be used to cure any existing deficiencies in a
26 school facility or to pay any fees associated with curing
27 those existing deficiencies.
28 "Proportionate share" means land and capital facilities
29 costs that are specifically and uniquely attributable to a
30 subdivision or resubdivision after the consideration of the
31 following factors: (i) the projected number of students
32 generated by the subdivision or resubdivision; (ii) any
33 appropriate credit or offset for the contribution of money;
34 (iii) construction of school capital facilities; (iv)
-5- LRB9009298MWcdam
1 payments reasonably anticipated to be made by or as a result
2 of the subdivision or resubdivision in the form of fees, debt
3 service payments, or taxes that are dedicated for school land
4 or capital facilities; and (v) all other available sources of
5 funding school land and capital facilities. In order to make
6 a determination of a developer's proportionate share, the
7 county must have in place a formula that shall be assessed
8 consistantly and accurately against all residential
9 subdivisions or resubdivisions.
10 "Specifically and uniquely attributable" means that a
11 subdivision or resubdivision creates the need or an
12 identifiable portion of the need for additional school land,
13 school capacity, or both to be provided by the donation. For
14 the purposes of this Section, "school land donation" means a
15 donation of land for public school purposes or a cash
