About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A right-of-way permit bond is a municipal-protection guarantee. When you open a Naugatuck street or work within the public right-of-way, the Borough wants a financial backstop that you’ll restore the road surface and not leave the public way damaged or unsafe.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Borough of Naugatuck (the obligee). If you fail to backfill, repave, or restore a cut to the Borough’s standard — or you damage borough property — the Borough can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore their cuts and follow the Borough’s standards treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

Borough of Naugatuck — right-of-way permitThe Borough of Naugatuck requires this $5,000 bond as a condition of a right-of-way permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the Borough of Naugatuck (Department of Public Works). We have not cited a specific ordinance number because the exact municipal code section is not published in a way we can verify — confirm the current requirement with the Borough.

Five minutes. The whole thing.

These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn’t have one.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Naugatuck right-of-way bond? +
The premium is $275 — a flat 3% of the $5,000 bond is $150, which falls below our $275 minimum, so you pay the $275 floor. Same for everyone; there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $5,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $5,000 is the surety’s maximum liability to the Borough of Naugatuck if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
Small fixed municipal bonds like this issue right after purchase in most cases — many contractors have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount permit bonds like this one don’t need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond stays active as long as the Borough requires it for your permit. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available.
