A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66478, a subdivider who develops or completes the development of one (1) or more subdivisions shall dedicate to the school district such lands as the district board deems to be necessary for the purpose of constructing schools necessary to assure the residents of the subdivision adequate elementary school service.
B. The requirement of dedication shall be imposed at the time of approval of the tentative map. If, within thirty (30) days after the requirement of dedication is imposed, the school district does not offer to enter into a binding commitment with the subdivider to accept the dedication, the dedication requirement shall automatically terminate. The required dedication may be made at any time before, concurrently with, or up to sixty (60) days after, the filing of the final map on any portion of the subdivision. The school district shall, if it accepts the dedication, repay to the subdivider or to the subdivider’s successors in interest the cost of the land plus the cost of improvements and taxes as specified in Government Code Section 66478. This dedication requirement shall not be applicable to a subdivider who has owned the land being subdivided for more than ten (10) years prior to the filing of the tentative map. (Ord. 4-16 § 1 (Exh. A) (part))
