About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the right-of-way bond actually covers

The City of Clio, in Genesee County, controls its streets, sidewalks, and public right-of-way. When a contractor or utility opens pavement, trenches the parkway, or otherwise works within city right-of-way, Clio requires a right-of-way bond as a condition of the permit.

The bond guarantees that you restore the disturbed area to the city’s specification and follow the permit’s terms — backfill, repave, replace what you remove, and leave the right-of-way safe. If you leave an unrestored cut or your work fails, the city can recover against the bond to finish it.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and the City of Clio (the obligee). It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city to repair your work, you repay the surety. Enter the amount the city set; premiums start from $100 and the application collects no credit information.

What does the bond guarantee?That you restore the city streets and right-of-way you disturb to Clio’s specification and follow your permit. If you don’t and the city has to finish the work, it can claim against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Where do I file it?With the City of Clio, alongside your right-of-way or street-opening permit application. We issue the executed bond ready to submit.
