About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the right-of-way bond actually guarantees

When you work in the public right-of-way in the Village of Fairport Harbor, Ohio, the Village conditions the permit on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond guarantees you restore the pavement, curb, sidewalk, and right-of-way to Village standards.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Village of Fairport Harbor (the obligee). If you fail to restore the right-of-way properly, the Village can recover its repair costs against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who backfill, compact, and repave to spec treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Fairport Harbor right-of-way bond? +
The premium is $275 — our minimum. The Village fixes the bond at $5,000, and 3% of $5,000 is $150, which falls below the $275 minimum, so the price is $275.
Do I pay the $5,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $5,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
What does the bond guarantee? +
That you restore the street, curb, sidewalk, and right-of-way to Village standards after your work. If you fail to, the Village of Fairport Harbor can recover its repair costs against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the application has no credit section. Small fixed-amount permit bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your permit never lapses over a missed email.
