Blue Ash arterial right-of-way bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
The City of Blue Ash requires a street-opening / right-of-way bond before you work in the right of way of its main arterial streets — Reed Hartman Highway, Cornell, Kenwood, Glendale-Milford, Pfeiffer, and Plainfield. That amount is $5,000; at a flat 3% the math is $150, but our minimum is $275, so $275 is the price.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Before anyone opens or works in the right of way of a Blue Ash main arterial street — Reed Hartman Highway, Cornell Road, Kenwood Road, Glendale-Milford Road, Pfeiffer Road, or Plainfield Road — the city's Public Works Department requires a permit and a street-opening bond under the city's right-of-way ordinance (Codified Ordinances Chapter 949).
Blue Ash sets the bond amount by where the work is. The main-arterial amount is $5,000 — distinct from the city's blanket ($10,000) option and its downtown-area ($5,000) amount. It's a three-party arrangement among you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Blue Ash (the obligee).
The bond guarantees you restore the right of way — pavement, curb, and surface — to the city's standards, which matter more on high-traffic arterials, and repair any damage. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a claim for unrepaired damage, you repay the surety.
