The City of Overland Park offers a $100,000 blanket bond that covers unlimited right-of-way permits — file it once instead of bonding each dig separately. Ours is $3,000 flat, which is 3% of the bond amount. The application takes about five minutes.
















A blanket right-of-way bond is the simplest way to keep working in city streets. Here's the whole process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials and no credit-check section on this bond.
License and blanket permit bonds like this are among the thousands that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with City of Overland Park Public Works so you can pull unlimited right-of-way permits. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$100,000 bond × 3% = $3,000, one-time per term. One blanket bond covers unlimited city ROW permits; multi-year if you want it.
An unlimited-permits right-of-way bond is a blanket restoration-and-compliance guarantee to the City of Overland Park. Rather than bond each excavation separately, a contractor who works in city streets often posts one $100,000 bond that backs every right-of-way permit they pull.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Overland Park (the obligee). If you leave a trench unrestored, damage city infrastructure, or otherwise violate any permit the bond covers, the city can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. High-volume contractors treat the blanket bond as the cost of keeping a continuous right-of-way relationship with the city.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
