About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

When you trench, bore, or build in Roeland Park's public right-of-way — its streets, curbs, and easements — the city wants a financial backstop that you'll restore what you disturb and follow its standards. This bond is that backstop.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Roeland Park (the obligee). If you leave the right-of-way un-restored or damage city property and the city has to fix it, Roeland Park can recover against the bond.

Roeland Park Public Works ties this fixed $5,000 bond to its right-of-way permits. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Roeland Park right-of-way bond? +
The premium is $275 — our minimum. The bond amount is a fixed $5,000 set by the City of Roeland Park, and while 3% of $5,000 is $150, the $275 minimum applies. Same price for every contractor.
Do I pay the $5,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $5,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the City of Roeland Park if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
Roeland Park Public Works requires it as a condition of its right-of-way permit. No active bond, no permit.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount municipal right-of-way bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond must stay active as long as you hold Roeland Park right-of-way permits. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your permits never lapse.
