What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
When you cut, trench, or otherwise disturb the public right-of-way — a city street, sidewalk, or utility easement — the City of Greenfield, Indiana requires a right-of-way permit and a surety bond. The bond is a restoration guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to repair the right-of-way to the city’s standard once your work is done.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Greenfield (the obligee). If you leave the pavement, curb, or sidewalk in worse condition than the city accepts and fail to fix it, the city can recover against the bond to make the repair.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who backfill, repave, and close out their permits cleanly treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
