What it is and who needs it.
What the excavation permit bond actually guarantees
An excavation permit bond is a restoration guarantee. The Village of Bradley requires a permit before anyone digs in a public street, sidewalk, or right-of-way, and Building Services conditions that permit on a surety bond that backs the promise to properly backfill, compact, and restore the surface once the work is done.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Bradley (the obligee). If an excavation is left improperly backfilled, the pavement or sidewalk is damaged, or the Village has to complete the restoration itself, it can draw on the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
There is no single villagewide penal sum — Building Services sets the amount on each permit based on the scope and location of the dig. Enter the figure your permit shows; your premium is priced from a $100 minimum after a quick soft credit check that never affects your score.
