The City of Winona requires a $10,000 surety bond for a sidewalk, driveway, curb and gutter construction permit — work in or along the public right-of-way. Pricing starts from $100 per term. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















Permit bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
Bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Winona Public Works / engineering office for your permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A Winona sidewalk and driveway permit bond is a right-of-way guarantee to the City. It promises that when you build or replace sidewalks, driveways, curb and gutter in Winona, you'll meet city specifications and properly restore the public right-of-way.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Winona (the obligee). If the work fails to meet spec or leaves the right-of-way damaged, the City can repair it and recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active while your permit is open. Let it lapse and the City can hold your permit — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section in the application, because this bond doesn't have one.
