Carlin Bay right-of-way bonds.
$200 flat.
The Carlin Bay Property Owners Association requires a fixed $20,000 bond before it issues a single right-of-way permit to dig, trench, bore, or build in the private roads it maintains near Lake Coeur d'Alene. Ours is $200 flat — the price you see is the checkout price. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Carlin Bay is a private community in North Idaho on Lake Coeur d'Alene, and the Carlin Bay Property Owners Association (CBPOA) maintains the roads and rights-of-way that serve it. When you need to disturb one of those roads — running a utility line, cutting in a driveway, setting a culvert, or boring under the surface — the association requires a right-of-way permit and a $20,000 bond first.
The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee to the association. It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Carlin Bay Property Owners Association (the obligee). If you fail to restore the road to its prior condition or violate the terms of your permit, the association can recover against the bond up to $20,000.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Permit holders who backfill, compact, and resurface to the association's standard treat the bond as a permit formality, and we track the term so your filing stays continuous if your work runs long.
