About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A right-of-way bond is a public-property protection guarantee. The City of Overland Park, KS conditions contractor right-of-way work on a surety bond, so that when you open streets, cut sidewalks, or work in the public way, the city has a financial backstop that the property will be restored and the permit conditions followed. This $15,000 tier covers a contractor pulling 10 permits or fewer.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Overland Park (the obligee). If a contractor leaves a defective patch, damages public infrastructure, or violates a permit, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Pulling only one permit? The City of Overland Park offers a $2,000 individual ROW bond that may fit better.

City of Overland Park, KS — Public Works / Right-of-WayThe City of Overland Park, KS requires this $15,000 bond as a condition of contractor right-of-way work for those pulling 10 permits or fewer; the bond amount, tiers, and terms are set by the City of Overland Park and its Public Works department. We have not cited a specific ordinance number because the governing municipal code section was not verifiable at publication — confirm the requirement with the City of Overland Park.

After you buy

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 $15,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

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 City of Overland Park. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Overland Park for your right-of-way permits. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $150 at the $15,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
