Officials warn developer may lose ability to have roads accepted after paving without required inspections
Summary
Planning staff and the road department reported that sections of Old Parksville Ridge were paved without required inspections or permits; the county may refuse to accept the roads if inspection reports are not provided, and commissioners raised runoff and compaction-test concerns.
Planning staff Bentley Thomas and Josh from the road department briefed commissioners about Old Parksville Ridge, saying the developer paved portions of the subdivision without following required road‑department inspections or submitting required documentation. Bentley said the developer had not contacted the road department as required and that the county has not received the inspection reports from the third‑party inspector the developer said it hired.
Josh (road department) said the department needs inspection reports and compaction records and that if the developer does not provide them, "I don't think we should take it in as a county road." Commissioners asked about runoff, catch basin elevations and whether private subdivisions must complete roads or post bonds before building continues. County staff noted uncertainty in older phases' records and said they will follow up with the developer and state stormwater regulators as needed.
