What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond covers
When you cut or work in a City of New Haven dedicated street, the city wants assurance the surface, curb, and right-of-way are restored to its standard after the work. The permit comes from the Engineering Department; the bond is filed with the Board of Public Works.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of New Haven (the obligee). If a cut is left unrestored or a patch fails and you don't fix it, the city can recover the repair cost against the bond.
The cut permit is typically valid for 90 days, and the bond is generally written for a one-year term from issue. We issue the amount the city set, at a variable premium starting from $100, ready to file with your permit.
