A. If Kane County has delegated the authority of Land/Cash to a Municipality, the “improved” site will be in accordance with the Land/Cash Ordinance of that Municipality.
B. Where possible, Park and School lands should be contiguous to accrue benefits to both districts, such as maintenance and year round use of the facilities.
C. In the event a School District desires land within a subdivision beyond the Developer’s required donation, the Developer shall hold the additional land in reserve for one year from the date of the recorded plat. The School District will have one year to purchase the reserved land, using the same calculation from the original donation. After one year, if the School District has not acquired the reserved land, the Developer is released from their obligation to reserve the land.
D. The topography, geology and soils of the dedicated site as well as its surroundings must be suitable for its intended purpose. Grading and drainage of sites dedicated shall be consistent with those purposes and comply with the Kane County Stormwater Management Ordinance. Sites which will rely on an on-site waste water disposal system must be in compliance with the requirements of Chapter 18 of the Kane County Code prior to acceptance and dedication.
E. Prior to dedication, the Developer shall improve the site with full service of electrical, communications, natural gas, water, sewer and roads where these services are within three hundred feet (300') of the site and as applicable to the location of the site, or acceptable provision must be made therefor. The sidewalks and trees normally included in the definition of “improved” sites may be deleted due to the delay between dedication of any such school site and construction of school facilities thereon.
