All applicants are required to submit actual as-built plans
for any stormwater management practices located on site after final

for all stormwater management facilities and must be certified by
a New York State licensed professional engineer. A final inspection
by the Town of Mendon is required before the release of any performance
securities can occur.
All applicants are responsible for maintaining the grading of
the site so that it is consistent with the certified as-built plans.
Any postconstruction alterations to the landscape shall receive prior
approval from the Town of Mendon. Temporary landscape alterations,
such as those associated with utility excavations and landscaping
activities, must be restored to conditions that are consistent with
the certified "as-built" plans.
Fees are established by the Mendon Town Board and are included
in the Town of Mendon Fee Schedule.
The Town of Mendon may, at its discretion, require the submittal
of a performance security or bond prior to approval in order to insure
that the stormwater practices are installed as required by the approved
stormwater pollution prevention plan. The amount of the installation
performance security shall be the total estimated construction cost
of the stormwater management practices approved by the Town of Mendon,
plus 25%. The performance security shall contain forfeiture provisions
for failure to complete work specified in the stormwater pollution
prevention plan. The installation performance security shall be released
in full only upon submission of as-built plans and written certification
by a New York State licensed professional engineer that the stormwater
practice has been installed in accordance with the approved plan and
other applicable provisions of this article. The Town of Mendon will
make a final inspection of the stormwater practice to ensure that
it is in compliance with the approved plan and the provisions of this
article. Provisions for a partial pro rata release of the performance
security based on the completion of various development stages can
be done at the discretion of the Town of Mendon.
