The City of Chestermere will refund the landscaping and performance deposits when the property has passed the landscaping and performance inspections. 

• Landscaping Deposit Refund Process - an As Constructed Grading Certificate (ACGC) must be submitted and accepted before a Landscaping Inspection has been carried out. The ACGC must be signed off on by a Land Surveyor or Professional Engineer. 
• Performance Deposit Refund Process

A Development Completion Certificate (DCC) is a document issued by the Development Authority confirming an approved development had been completed as per approved plans, Development Permit conditions, Development Agreement requirements, engineering and landscaping standards of the City of Chestermere, and is of acceptable quality.

Upon receipt of a paid DCC application, current Certificate of Title, and all as-builts, City Staff will conduct at least 2 on-site inspections to ensure development compliance. Inspection details are listed below:

• The DCC fee includes the two inspections (initial and maintenance period). 
• Should additional inspections be required, an additional fee will be applied.
