Danville Municipal Code § 31-15 Construction Work

a. Inspections Required. All work done in constructing the improvements and all materials furnished shall be subject to the inspection of the Engineering Department.

b. Right of Entry. The Engineering Department, the Building Inspection Department and the Flood Control District shall have access to the work at all times during its construction and shall be furnished with every reasonable facility for ascertaining that the materials used and the workmanship are in accordance with the requirements of this chapter.

c. Work Prior to Inspection. If any of the work on improvements is done by the subdivider prior to the completion of review of the improvement plans and payment of the inspection fee, or prior to the inspection of the improvements as required by the Engineering Department, such work may be rejected and shall be deemed to have been done at the risk and peril of the subdivider.

d. Fee. Prior to commencement of construction, the subdivider shall pay to the Engineering Department the cost for the inspection of the work and checking and testing of the materials as established and adopted by the Town Council from time to time by resolution, less the amount of the improvement plan review fee. If any portion of the work has been done prior to the time of depositing the fee, the subdivider shall pay to the Town all necessary costs plus fifteen (15%) percent thereof, for the inspection and testing required to verify the quantity and quality of the work done.

a. Completion Required. The subdivider shall prosecute the work to completion without undue delay except for inclement weather or other reasonable causes.

b. Penalty for Delay in Completion. Delay in completion of the work beyond the period stated in the subdivision agreement, unless an extension thereof is approved by the Engineering Department or Town Council and any involved corporate surety or financial institution, may result in forfeiture of the cash deposit and/or security, or a portion thereof, for the completion of the work. A one (1) year extension may be approved by the Engineering Department. Any further extension can only be approved by the Town Council. Prior to the approval of any extension, the Engineering Department shall review the sufficiency of the security and remaining work to be done.

a. Recommendation by Engineering Department. When all improvement work required by the improvement plans is complete to the satisfaction of the Engineering Department, it shall notify the Town Council that such work has been satisfactorily completed and recommend the acceptance thereof.

b. Resolution of Acceptance. Upon satisfactory completion of all work required to meet the requirements of this chapter and its acceptance, the Town Council shall file a resolution of acceptance.
