Homer Township right-of-way bonds.
From $100. Enter your amount.
Before you can work inside a Homer Township highway right-of-way, the Road District's Highway Commissioner requires a surety bond, payable to the Township, on your right-of-way permit application — under the general road-district authority of the Illinois Highway Code, 605 ILCS 5, Article 6. The Commissioner sets the bond to the scope and restoration cost of the work; larger access permits have run into five figures. Premiums cost 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.

What it is and who needs it.
What the Homer Township right-of-way bond actually guarantees
The Homer Township Road District, administered under the Illinois Highway Code, 605 ILCS 5, Article 6, gives its Highway Commissioner general authority over township and district roads, including granting permits for driveways, utility crossings, and other work within the road right-of-way. The Commissioner conditions a right-of-way permit on a surety bond, payable to the Township.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Township (the obligee), with the road right-of-way as the protected asset. The bond backs your promise to complete permitted work and restore any township right-of-way disturbed in the process; Will County approval is also required before access is granted on covered projects.
Because the Commissioner sizes the bond to each permit's scope, there is no single fixed amount — one Homer Township access permit has required a $25,000 surety bond, but smaller work is bonded for less. Enter the figure your permit specifies; we price it from a $100 minimum. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
