About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Leslie right-of-way bond covers

A right-of-way bond is a restoration guarantee to the City of Leslie. When you cut pavement, open a trench, or work in a city street, sidewalk, or curb under a permit, the city wants a financial backstop that the right-of-way will be restored and your permit conditions met.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Leslie (the obligee). If you damage public infrastructure and fail to repair it, the city can recover its restoration costs against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way to standard treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

City of Leslie (right-of-way permit)The City of Leslie (Ingham County) requires this bond as a condition of its right-of-way / street-opening permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the city for the work. Confirm the required amount on your permit paperwork.

After you buy

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 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.

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. Submit the executed bond to the City of Leslie to pull your right-of-way permit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the city insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, priced instantly.
