What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Madison Heights requires a $5,000 bond from contractors who open or work in the public right-of-way — cutting pavement, running utilities, or disturbing the City’s streets and curbs. The City wants a financial backstop that you’ll restore the right-of-way you disturb.
It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Madison Heights (the obligee). The bond guarantees you’ll comply with the City’s right-of-way permit conditions and restore pavement, curb, and surface to standard.
It is not insurance for you. If the City makes a valid claim and the surety pays, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way and close out their permits cleanly treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
