The Town of Westport requires a $25,000 bond before you make a sanitary sewer connection or open a town road for the work. Ours is $250 flat. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















Sewer connection and road opening bonds are simple. Here’s the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That’s the application — no financials, no credit fields. Most applications approve instantly.
Small fixed municipal bonds like this issue right after purchase in most cases. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the Town of Westport for your sewer connection and road opening permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
This bond is a municipal-protection guarantee tied to two things at once: connecting to the Town of Westport sanitary sewer and opening the town road to do it. The Town wants a financial backstop that the sewer lateral is made correctly and the road is fully restored afterward.
It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Westport (the obligee). If you make a defective sewer connection, damage town property, or fail to restore the road opening to the town’s standard, the Town can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who make clean connections and restore their cuts treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information.
