Before constructing, installing, or altering a utility facility — water, sewer, gas, electric, or telecommunications lines and similar infrastructure — within a public right of way in the Village of East Dundee, Village Code § 54.04 requires a permit, and § 54.10 conditions it on posting security. Premiums cost 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly.
















Right-of-way bonds are short, standard-form permit filings. Enter your amount, pay, and file with the Village. Here is the whole thing:
Your details, the scope of the right-of-way work, the bond amount your permit requires, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. If a check ever runs on a larger amount, it is a soft pull that will not touch your score.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to attach to your right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
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.
These are the actual underwriting fields — no credit section, because this application doesn't collect credit information.
