(a)

As a condition of approval of a final plat of a subdivision or of a final plan for a planned development, each subdivider or developer is required to dedicate land for school sites to serve the immediate and future needs of the residents of the development, or cash contribution in lieu of actual land dedication, or a combination of both at the option of the county in accordance with this article.

With concurrence from the affected school district, whether land, cash in lieu of land or a combination of both shall be required; and

(2)

If any municipality having a 12-mile planning jurisdiction, pursuant to 65 ILCS 5/11-13-1 et seq., wishes to exercise such jurisdiction relative to a required land dedication or cash contribution to the affected district, whichever requirement, that of the county or the municipality, is more restrictive shall prevail.
