What it is and who needs it.
What the permit bond actually covers
When you cut into or build on the public right-of-way in the City of Central — a curb cut for a new driveway, a sidewalk replacement, or a street cut to reach a utility — the city issues a permit and conditions it on a surety bond. The bond is a restoration guarantee: it stands behind your putting the right-of-way back the way the city requires.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Central (the obligee). If the work damages city property or you fail to restore the cut to standard, the city can recover its costs against the bond.
Because the amount tracks the work, there is no single statutory figure — the city sets it on your permit, often tied to the cost of the restoration. Enter that figure and see your exact price — 1% of the amount, $100 minimum — at the application.
