Shawnee ROW perf & maintenance bonds.
$500 flat.
The City of Shawnee requires a $50,000 performance & maintenance bond from contractors who work in its public right-of-way — it backs both the work and the restoration holding up afterward. The premium is a fixed $500 at every bond amount — the price never moves, and there is nothing to calculate.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A right-of-way performance & maintenance bond is a two-part guarantee to the City of Shawnee. The performance side backs that you complete the right-of-way work to the city's standards; the maintenance side backs that the restoration — pavement, surface, compaction — holds up for the warranty period afterward.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Shawnee (the obligee). If you fail to complete the work, or the restoration fails during the maintenance period, the city can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who finish the work and stand behind their restoration treat the bond as a permit formality, nothing more. No credit check.

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 $50,000 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 the city. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with City of Shawnee Public Works for your right-of-way work. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
