What it is and who needs it.
What the right of way bond actually guarantees
East Dundee's Village Code Chapter 54 governs the construction of utility facilities — water, sewer, gas, electric, and telecommunications lines and similar infrastructure — within a public right of way. Section 54.04 requires a permit before that work begins, and § 54.10 conditions the permit on posting a security fund that backs the promise to restore the right of way and comply with the permit's terms.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of East Dundee (the obligee), with the Village's streets, sidewalks, and utilities as the protected interest. If the right of way is left damaged or the permit conditions are not met, the Village can draw on the bond, and you repay the surety — it is not insurance for you.
There is no single citywide amount — the amount is set on your permit to match the scope of the work. Enter the figure shown on your right-of-way permit; we price the bond at 1% of that amount, $100 minimum.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Village. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to attach to your right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
