Road Acceptance Process

The following steps are involved in the road acceptance process:

1. Final inspection is requested by the developer to the County Construction Inspection department
   • The site is inspected and if necessary, a punch list is generated by the County Construction Inspection department
   • The punch list is completed by the developer and re-inspected by the County Inspection department
   • If all items were addressed, notification is sent by the Construction Inspection department to accept the road(s)
2. The acceptance process starts:
   • The County Office of Land Management will prepare the deed and present it to the Bonding and Permit Administration office
   • The Bonding and Permit Administration prepares the road acceptance affidavit, creates the developer’s road acceptance instructional letter, then mails the package to the developer noted on the fee authorization letter
   • Once the signed documents are returned to the Bonding and Permit Administration office, the road acceptance package is routed for county approval and signatures
   • The county approved and signed package is returned to the Bonding and Permit Administration office for distribution to all interested parties
   • The previously submitted surety will be reduced and held for the required 1-year maintenance period
   • A maintenance inspection is performed after the 1-year maintenance period
   • A punch list will be generated, if necessary, to be completed by the developer
   • The site is re-inspected and if all items were addressed the maintenance bond will be authorized to be released.
   • Construction Inspections will notify the Bonding and Permit Administration office to release the remaining surety
   • The Bonding and Permit Administration will process the surety release providing the billing account is current with no past due monies
