§ 30-284. Complete or final releases of assurances.

(a)

Upon the full completion of all subdivision improvements, a developer may request the complete or final release of assurances for that subdivision. All such requests for complete or final assurance release shall be accompanied by the submittal of a letter from the developer, along with the record drawings prepared by the project engineer, showing all improvements completed and including reports on any necessary required testing. An electronic form acceptable to the county engineer may also be submitted.

(b)

Upon receipt of a written finding, signed by the county engineer, that all subdivision improvements are complete and comply with these, and all other applicable regulations and standards, the director shall schedule the final release of assurances for consideration by the board of supervisors.

(c)

If the county engineer determines any noncompliance with these or other required regulations, standards or specifications, they shall notify the developer of such deficiencies.

(d)

Any acceptance of the subdivision improvements and release of assurances shall not absolve or release the developers, owners, or the project engineers, contractors, subcontracts or other agents from full responsibility for full completion of improvements and compliance with all laws, including these regulations.

(e)

The institution providing or holding the assurance shall not release the assurance without the expressed written permission of the county. Should an assurance be released contrary to these regulations, legal action may follow, and the county shall notify the commissioner of the state department of real estate.
