What it is and who needs it.
What the Midland right-of-way bond covers
When a contractor opens a street or works in the public right of way in Midland, the City conditions the permit on a $2,500 surety bond. The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your promise to backfill, repave, and restore the public way to the City's standards once the work is done.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Midland (the obligee). If you leave the right of way unrestored or damage City infrastructure and don't fix it, the City can recover its repair 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 cleanly treat the bond as a permit formality.
