About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Vestal street opening bond guarantees

A street opening bond is a restoration guarantee to the Town. When you cut into a public road for a utility tie-in, driveway, or excavation, the Town of Vestal wants assurance that you will backfill, repave, and restore the road to Town specification — and not leave a hazard or a sunken patch behind.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Vestal (the obligee). If you fail to restore the opening properly, the Town can complete the repair and recover its cost against the $1,000 bond.

The bond stays in place until the work is accepted. Once the Town signs off on your restoration, the obligation is satisfied — we keep it active until then.
