The City of Wheat Ridge conditions its right-of-way permit on a fixed $10,000 bond. The price you see is the checkout price — $100 flat, the same for every contractor. It guarantees you restore the right-of-way you disturb. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















Right-of-way permit 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 section.
Small fixed permit bonds like this often issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink original on request.
The City of Wheat Ridge requires a permit to work in its public right-of-way — to cut a street, open a sidewalk, or place utilities — and conditions that permit on a $10,000 bond. The bond is a restoration guarantee: it stands behind your patching, restoring, and stabilizing the right-of-way you disturb, to the City's standards.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Wheat Ridge (the obligee). If a contractor leaves the right-of-way unrestored or damages City infrastructure, the City can recover against the bond to make the repairs.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Keep your restorations clean and the bond is a permit formality. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your $10,000 filing stays continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn't have one.
