About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the excavation bond actually guarantees

An excavation permit bond is a restoration guarantee to the City of Marion. When you open the street, sidewalk, or right-of-way to dig, the city wants a financial backstop that you'll backfill, repave, and restore the surface to its standards.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Marion (the obligee). If you leave the right-of-way in worse shape than you found it, the city can recover its restoration cost against the bond.

The bond must stay active while your permit is open. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $2,000 filing continuous.
