The Southwest Metropolitan Water & Sanitation District conditions its right-of-way permit on a fixed $10,000 bond. At a flat 3% that is $300 — the same for every contractor. It guarantees you restore the District's right-of-way and protect its water and sewer mains. Five-minute application, no credit check.
















District right-of-way bonds are among the simplest in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check section.
Small fixed bonds like this often issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the Southwest Metropolitan Water & Sanitation District's permit office. Wet-ink original on request.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
The Southwest Metropolitan Water & Sanitation District is a special district that owns and operates water and sewer infrastructure in the southwest Denver metro area. To work in the District's right-of-way or near its mains, a contractor pulls a permit and posts a $10,000 bond. The bond is a restoration and protection guarantee: it stands behind your restoring the right-of-way and not damaging the District's water and sewer lines.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Southwest Metropolitan Water & Sanitation District (the obligee). If a contractor damages District infrastructure or leaves the right-of-way unrestored, the District can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the bond and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your $10,000 filing stays continuous for the life of your permit.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
