The other sentences contain grammatical errors related to subject-verb agreement. Here are the corrections for the other sentences:

  1. The surface of the parking lots was redone this summer. (The subject "surface" is singular, so it should take "was.")

  2. The sidewalks in the courtyards have been decorated with chalk. (The subject "sidewalks" is plural, so it should take "have.")

  3. The cars in the parking lot belong to the teachers. (The subject "cars" is plural, so it should take "belong.")
