construction for maybe 60 days. We’re pushing for 30, and so after that you’re talking about a regular 1 Dodge pick-up truck. 2 3 Barry Katz: It’s the construction time and whether or not that is going to deteriorate the quality of life for the 4 people who live on Old Oak Place, because of the further deterioration of that road and, if there was such 5 deterioration, whether that can be mitigated. 6 7 Paul Parker: Yes; that can be mitigated. We would be prepared to take care of any damage done to that 8 road during this construction. 9 10 Barry Katz: So this may be the time where this was mentioned, I guess that’s page 55, where there was 11 some general concern about the condition of the neighborhood road and the staff answered they were 12 going to ask the DOT if they would look at this and if they would ask the applicant to post a construction 13 dock to cover potential impacts to the roadways associated with construction, as part of this. My 14 understanding is this is not an obligation but, this is something that was a request. Have you considered 15 this request and had you have a decision about that? 16 17 Paul Parker: We’ve considered the request and we’ve not had any dollar amount, as far as what kind of 18 bond to put up or who to put the bond with, but we are prepared to maintain the current integrity of the road. 19 20 Barry Katz: Is there a historic standard for how this is dealt with/addressed? Do you know? 21 22 James Bryan: I believe that there is a current bond on this project, of at least $75,000. It’s my 23 understanding… Typically the … will say if it’s tied to a… If that changes the bond needs to be re-issued 24 so, if it needs to be re-issued perhaps it needs to be re-issued with a higher value. 25 26 Samantha Cabe: Mr. Bryan, I have a question for you… The bond that would be applicable to any damage 27 to the road- would that amount be determined by the DOT or since it’s a state maintained road that would 28 be subject to being damaged? Do you know? 29 30 James Bryan: That is a very interesting dilemma. This Board can only put on conditions that says it’s 31 required in order to meet these standards. 32 33 Samantha Cabe: I wasn’t suggesting that we make that a condition, I’m just asking if that’s a question for 34 the North Carolina DOT whether or not to require bond since this is a state maintained road? 35 36 James Bryan: Could be… It depends. I’m not sure about a clear answer. Just because the road 37 deteriorates and you say, “Ok, now we’ve got a bond for a million dollars. DOT here’s a million dollars, you 38 can’t tell the state to fix any road.”. They may be happy to take the money but they’re not obligated to fix 39 that particular road. 40 41 Barry Katz: I thought this bond covered the cost of repairing the road to the conditions that existed previous 42 to the construction, and that the money was somehow tied. There’s no tying, is there? 43 44 James Bryan: I believe that the current bond is for the current parcel, not for adjacent parcels. 45 46 Barry Katz: Alright, just to be clear about it… Regardless of the intention of Crown, there’s no way to tie 47 Crown to responsibility to maintain the road at the quality at which it was at beginning of construction? 48 49 10
