A street opening / sidewalk permit bond is the City of Hoboken’s assurance that any public road or sidewalk you open goes back the way it was. It guarantees you restore the pavement, sidewalk, curb, and right-of-way to the City’s standards after the work is done.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Hoboken (the obligee). If you leave the surface unrestored or below standard, the City can recover against the bond to fix it.
