This section shall not apply to condominium projects or stock cooperatives which consist of the subdivision of air space in an existing apartment building which is more than five years old, when no new dwelling units are added by the subdivision.

As a condition of approval of a final map, a subdivider who develops or completes the development of one or more subdivisions within any elementary school district within the city of Rancho Cordova shall dedicate to the school district such lands as the city council deems to be necessary for the purpose of constructing thereon schools necessary to assure the residents of the subdivision adequate elementary school service.
The requirement of dedication shall be imposed at the time of approval of the tentative map. If, within 30 days after the requirement of dedication is imposed by the city or such other time period the subdivider and school district mutually agree on, the school district does not offer to enter into a binding commitment with the subdivider to accept the dedication, the requirement shall automatically terminate. The required dedication may be made at any time before, concurrently with, or up to 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 his successors in interest the cost of the land plus the cost of improvements and taxes as specified in Section 66478. The provisions of this section shall not be applicable to a subdivider who has owned the land being subdivided for more than 10 years prior to the filing of the tentative map.
