What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond actually covers
A right-of-way bond is a public-property restoration guarantee. When you cut into or work within a City of Lapeer street, sidewalk, or right-of-way, the City wants a financial backstop that you'll restore the surface to its specifications and won't leave the public with a failed patch.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lapeer (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If the restoration fails or the right-of-way is left damaged, the City can recover against the bond.
The City sets the amount on your permit, generally tied to the size of the opening or the cost to restore it. Pricing starts from $100 and is set by the carrier from the amount and your credit tier, on the City's bond form, ready to file with your right-of-way permit.
