1 surfacing as may be established by the county engineer or
2 superintendent of highways and which by resolution shall be
3 deemed to be the minimum requirements in the interest of the
4 health, safety, education and convenience of the public of the
5 county; and may provide by resolution that the map, plat or
6 subdivision shall be submitted to the county board or to some
7 officer to be designated by the county board for their or his
8 approval. The county board shall have a qualified engineer make
9 an estimate of the probable expenditures necessary to enable
10 any person to conform with the standards of construction
11 established by the board pursuant to the provisions of this
12 Section. Except as provided in Section 3 of the Public
13 Construction Bond Act, each person who seeks the county board's
14 approval of a map, plat or subdivision shall post a good and
15 sufficient cash bond, irrevocable letter of credit, surety
16 bond, or other adequate security with the county clerk, in a
17 penal sum sufficient to cover the estimate of expenditures made
18 by the estimating engineer. The cash bond, irrevocable letter
19 of credit, surety bond, or other adequate security shall be
20 conditioned upon faithful adherence to the rules and
21 regulations of the county board promulgated pursuant to the
22 authorization granted to it by this Section or by Section
23 5-1062 of this Code, and in such cases no such map, plat or
24 subdivision shall be entitled to record in the proper county or
25 have any validity until it has been so approved. If the county
26 board requires a cash bond, letter of credit, surety, or any
27 other method to cover the costs and expenses and to insure
28 completion of the requirements, the requirements shall be
29 subject to the provisions of Section 5-1123 of this Code. This
30 Section is subject to the provisions of Section 5-1123.
31     The county board may, by resolution, provide a schedule of
32 fees sufficient to reimburse the county for the costs incurred
33 in reviewing such maps, plats and subdivisions submitted for
34 approval to the county board. The fees authorized by this

1 Section are to be paid into the general corporate fund of the
2 county by the party desiring to have the plat approved.
3     For purposes of implementing ordinances regarding
4 developer donations or impact fees and only for the purpose of
5 expenditures thereof, "public grounds for schools" is defined
6 as including land or site improvements, which include school
7 buildings or other infrastructure necessitated and
8 specifically and uniquely attributable to the development or
9 subdivision in question. This amendatory Act of the 93rd
10 General Assembly applies to all impact fees or developer
11 donations paid into a school district or held in a separate
12 account or escrow fund by any school district or county for a
13 school district.
14     No officer designated by a county board for the approval of
15 plats shall engage in the business of surveying, and no map,
16 plat or subdivision shall be received for record or have any
17 validity which has been prepared by or under the direction of
18 such plat officer.
19     It is the intention of this amendatory Act of 1990 to
20 repeal the language added to Section 25.09 of "An Act to revise
21 the law in relation to counties", approved March 31, 1874, by
22 P.A. 86-614, Section 25.09 of that Act being the predecessor of
23 this Section.
