Since large developments can result in substantial financial
risk to the Town if the fee is insufficient to cover the costs of
inspections of the work, the percentage noted to be charged as a "fe"
is estimated to be sufficient to cover the costs that may be incurred
by the Town. To protect the Town from risk and to avoid overpayment
of nonrefundable "fees," the applicant/developer may enter into an
agreement with the Town, in a form acceptable to the Attorney for
the Town, whereby the Town's costs will be covered by an escrow account
funded by the applicant/developer based on an estimate provided by
the Town Engineer. Any unused balance in the escrow will be refunded
to the applicant/developer at the project conclusion. The costs to
be paid from the escrow account include all reasonable fees and costs
associated with the Town's inspection and field administration, including,
but not limited to, utility work, paving, grading, stormwater facilities,
curbing, walks, landscaping, fencing, roadways, project meetings,
code compliance plan reviews, project related inspection, special
inspections, and reports. The work may be performed by Town employees,
Town consultants, or third-party inspectors, including specialty firms,
as the type of work may require or be convenient for the Town. The
costs for office administration and enforcement will be paid from
the administration fee.
