For a one-time right-of-way job, the City of Binghamton requires a single-job bond covering that specific street-opening permit — rather than an annual blanket bond. The City sets the amount; we issue it at a flat 3% — $275 minimum — with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for a single-job bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the City. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the City required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond with your right-of-way permit application to the City. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure on your City of Binghamton permit and the premium updates.
The City of Binghamton controls work in its streets and rights-of-way through permits issued by the City's engineering / public works function. A single-job bond covers one specific permit — it is a restoration guarantee backing your obligation to repair and restore the right-of-way you disturb.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Binghamton (the obligee). If you leave the cut unrestored or restoration fails, the City can recover against the bond to make the repair.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. A single-job bond is the right choice when you have one permit, not a year of work.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
