What it is and who needs it.
What the curb-cut bond actually covers
A single-address curb-cut bond is a right-of-way restoration guarantee tied to one specific job. When you cut a driveway or curb into the City of Findlay's right-of-way at a particular address, the City wants a financial backstop that the work meets its standards and that City property is restored if the work is incomplete, substandard, or causes damage.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Findlay through its Engineering Department (the obligee). If the work fails, the City can claim against the bond to fund the repairs at that location.
Unlike Findlay's blanket curb-cut bond, this one is sized to a single address — the City sets the amount based on the scope of the job and the cost to restore the right-of-way. Enter that figure and we quote your price at 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — a fixed rate, not a credit-tier estimate. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays, you repay the surety.

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.
How to file it
File with the Engineering Department. Submit the executed bond to the City of Findlay Engineering Department so your curb-cut permit for that address can issue. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
