Creates the School Land and Capital Facilities Assessment Act. Provides for the assessment of land and capital facilities assessment fees by a school district against the owners of dwelling units that are constructed within new developments that are constructed in the school district. Provides that the assessment, imposition, and collection of these fees pursuant to the Act shall be the sole and exclusive means by which units of local government and school districts may assess, impose, and collect fees against new development for purposes of satisfying and financing the costs of acquiring and improving school lands and of constructing school capital facilities to meet the demands and needs of new development. Provides for the undertaking of a land and capital facilities needs assessment by a school district, a school district's adoption of a land and capital facilities plan, and the right of a fee payer to contest the school district's adoption of a land and capital facilities plan or the school district's assessment, collection, or use of land and capital facilities assessment fees. Provides that only school districts situated in whole or in part in counties having a population in excess of 250,000 have the authority to adopt a land and capital facilities plan and assess and collect land and capital facilities assessment fees. Provides that the Act does not apply to the Chicago school district. Provides that no unit of local government other than these school districts has the authority to adopt a land and capital facilities plan and assess land and capital facilities assessment fees. Provides that any unit of local government that has adopted an ordinance that provides for the assessment and payment of fees to satisfy land acquisition and improvement costs or capital facilities costs for school districts operating within its boundaries shall repeal the ordinance to the extent such school districts adopt a land and capital facilities plan and establish a land and capital facilities assessment fee. Limits the concurrent exercise of home rule powers. Amends the Property Tax Code, the Counties Code, and the Illinois Municipal Code to provide that certain provisions are subject to the Act. Amends the State Mandates Act to require implementation without reimbursement. Effective immediately.
