What it is and who needs it.
What the street opening bond actually covers
A street opening permit bond is the Township of Union’s assurance that the public road you cut into goes back the way it was. It guarantees you restore the pavement, curb, and right-of-way to the Township’s standards after the work is done.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Township of Union (the obligee). If you leave the surface unrestored or below standard, the Township can recover against the bond to fix it.
The Township sets the amount on your permit, usually tied to the size and surface type of the opening. We issue that amount; pricing starts from $100 and depends on your bond amount, on the form the Township names.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
