My road is currently not maintained by the City of Charlottesville. Can this be changed?

For a street to be accepted by the City of Charlottesville, it will have to be constructed, inspected and accepted by the Engineering Division of Public Works.  Most existing streets that are not currently accepted are either still under construction or they were not initially designed/constructed in accordance with city standards.  Please contact the Engineering Division of Public Works if you have specific questions about acceptance of your street.
