New construction up the hill from Weirs

From my planning board days, the extent of bonding is typically limited to covering work the town would need to do should the developer fail to complete. For example, in a development that would include roads (construction and full paving, curbing if spec'ed), water and sewer utilities, perhaps drainage-related work like retention ponds or environmental impact work like silt barriers.

If the developer wants to be able to sell the product before completion the AG requires a performance bond be in place. Depending on the type of development, it can vary for example in commercial applications many times a reclamation bond is all that is required, and a performance bond is required for what ever effects the towns well being. In a subdivision, the AG requires one, but the town also requires one so that the lot owner can pull a building permit before all the infrastructure is complete, it is a way of protecting the lot buyer. It should also be said that it doesn't have to be a bond it can be a LOC or cash.

Someone should plant a new tree in the very middle of the mess. I drive by that place everyday. It looks horrible. Heck we should get a bunch of people together and go plant some trees in there.....
