About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

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.
