:. homeowners are fully aware. Board members asked how much money would be put away. That was not answered. Alexander Gregory asked what could happen to the bridge. Bellantoni said the lifespan of the bridge is 75 years. If the homeowners maintain and seal the road, it will last. Kim Piracci and David Blankfard are concerned that the cost will be surprisingly astronomical to the homeowners. Bellantoni said he doesn't know what the cost will be but it will be collected and grow over time. Patrick Mallett said there will be costs for resurfacing, paving and street trees in addition to the bridge maintenance. Randy Marshall said the distinction is no taxpayer money will go into repairing the bridge. It is up to the homeowners to make sure they can handle paying for this. Tony Blake asked who is responsible if logs or debris block the huge culvert. Bellantoni answered the homeowners association would be responsible. Hunter Spitzer asked about the school boundary. Peter Bellantoni answered that four lots will be in the Orange County Schools district and the rest will be in the Chapel Hill - Carrboro City Schools district. Hunter Spitzer asked Peter Bellantoni whether the developer knowingly used material for the keystones that would not meet NCDOT standards. Peter Bellantoni answered other regions around the state have used the same materials and those materials were the most economical that the developer could use.
