Before you open a street or work in the public right-of-way in the City of Greenville, Ohio, the City conditions the permit on a surety bond guaranteeing you restore the right-of-way. We issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check — enter the amount the City requires and the premium updates. (The original bond is mailed to you to sign and file.)
















No underwriting queue for the standard right-of-way bond — enter your amount, describe the work, and pay. The original is mailed to you to sign. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, a description of the work in the right-of-way, 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.
The original bond is mailed to the address you provide. The Principal (you) signs it, then files it with the City of Greenville before starting work.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure on your Greenville permit and the premium updates.
When you open a street, bore, or otherwise work in the public right-of-way in the City of Greenville, Ohio, the City conditions the permit on a surety bond. The bond guarantees you restore the pavement, curb, sidewalk, and right-of-way to City standards and do not leave a hazard behind.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Greenville (the obligee). If you fail to restore the right-of-way properly, the City 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.
Describe the work and enter the bond amount the City required — the executed bond is generated instantly and the original is mailed for your signature.
