Government Code section 65978

Any school district receiving funds pursuant to this chapter shall maintain a separate account for any fees paid and shall file a report with the city council or board of supervisors on the balance in the account at the end of the previous fiscal year; the facilities leased, purchased, or constructed; and the dedication of land during the previous fiscal year. In addition, the report shall specify which attendance areas will continue to be overcrowded when the fall term begins and where conditions of overcrowding will no longer exist. The report shall be filed by October 15 of each year and shall be filed more frequently at the request of the board of supervisors or city council.
The board of supervisors or city council may approve a 30-day extension for the filing of the report in the case of extenuating circumstances, as determined by the board of supervisors or city council.
During the time that the report has not been filed in the manner prescribed in this section, there shall be a waiver of any performance of the payment of fees or the dedication of land.
If overcrowding conditions no longer exist, the city or county shall cease levying any fee or requiring the dedication of any land pursuant to this chapter.
