What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond actually guarantees
The Town of Grand Lake requires a right-of-way permit before anyone digs, bores, or excavates in the public right-of-way within the Town, and conditions that permit on a surety bond. The bond protects the Town when its streets and infrastructure are opened up for utility work, service connections, and other excavation.
The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee running to the Town: it stands behind your obligation to restore the pavement, curb, and other public improvements you disturb, and your compliance with Town right-of-way standards. The Town sets the amount on your permit.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Grand Lake (the obligee). If you leave the right-of-way unrestored or out of spec, the Town can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it

What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
