Your request for an inspection and bond release for Pavilions at Pantops Phase II —
North and West has been processed. The road bond is currently at $463,170 for both private
road sections. The private roads do not adequately address requirements for approval at this
time. Please review the following conditions prior to requesting a site visit/meeting to discuss
what is required to reduce the road bond amount.
Attached, please find a link to the Private Road Acceptance Procedure.

2) Much of the curbing is broken/fractured and will need to be repaired. Some areas of curbing
may be repaired with epoxy or other approved concrete repair system.
3) Many areas of the asphalt are cracking and may need to be milled and overlain with a new top
coating. This office recommends contacting a pavement specialist to determine best practice to
repair roads.
