About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Brighton ROW bond covers

The City of Brighton requires a financial guarantee for any work in the public right-of-way (ROW) or on public infrastructure during development construction. The amount is set from your schedule of public improvements, not a flat statutory figure.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Brighton (the obligee). The bond guarantees you complete the permitted improvements and restore city infrastructure to standard.

On construction acceptance, Brighton reduces the guarantee to 15% of actual costs and a warranty period begins. We issue the amount the city set, at a flat 3% with no credit check, on the ROW permit bond form Brighton names.

City of Brighton — Public Works / One-StopThe City of Brighton requires a financial guarantee, held by the city, for work in the public right-of-way and on public infrastructure; the amount is set from the applicant’s schedule of public improvements and is reduced to a warranty retainage on construction acceptance. The bond form and amount are set by the City of Brighton — confirm current terms with the Brighton One-Stop / Public Works office.
