Dedicated and publicly maintained streets shall be required for development in all districts except as described in paragraph 12.2.2A, Private Streets or Roads. An unlimited number of building permits can be issued for land parcels adjacent to a public street that is not maintained by either the City or NCDOT. However, no occupancy permits shall be issued unless the street has been accepted for maintenance by the City or NCDOT, as appropriate, or the construction has been certified to be acceptable for maintenance by the City or NCDOT, as appropriate, or a surety instrument has been posted in an amount adequate to complete construction to the satisfaction of the City Public Works Director or NCDOT, or appropriate designees. For streets outside the corporate limits, the applicant shall request NCDOT maintenance as soon as the NCDOT occupancy requirement is met; not more than twice the minimum number of units required for maintenance by NCDOT shall be issued Certificates of Occupancy prior to acceptance for maintenance by NCDOT.
