About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the road permit bond actually covers

A Michigan county road commission controls the right-of-way along county roads. To install a driveway, run a utility, or excavate within that right-of-way, you need a permit from the Manistee County Road Commission — and the Commission can require a bond guaranteeing you restore the road and right-of-way you disturb.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Manistee County Road Commission (the obligee). If you don’t backfill, repave, and restore the right-of-way to the Commission’s standard, it can draw on the bond to do so.

It is not insurance for you. If the Road Commission makes a valid claim and the surety pays, you repay the surety. Once the work is inspected and accepted, the bond is released. Enter the amount on your permit and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
