What it is and who needs it.
What the blanket ROW bond actually covers
The public right of way — the streets, curbs, sidewalks, and utility strips in Niles — belongs to the city. Before a contractor or utility disturbs it, the City of Niles Department of Public Works requires a permit, and a blanket right-of-way bond stands behind the work done under that permit for the year.
A blanket bond covers every job you do in the Niles right of way during the term — one bond instead of a separate bond per street cut. It guarantees you will restore the pavement, curb, and surface to the city's standard and follow the permit conditions.
It is a three-party promise: you (the principal), the surety, and the City of Niles (the obligee). If you leave a cut unrestored or damage city infrastructure, Niles can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
