What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A right-of-way permit bond is a restoration guarantee. When you open the Medina County right-of-way, the County Engineer wants a financial backstop that you will restore the road, sidewalk, and shoulder to county standards.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Medina County through the County Engineer (the obligee). If work causes damage or fails to meet county standards and is left unrepaired, the county or affected parties can file a claim against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the permit term. We track it and notify you ahead of expiration so an open permit is never uncovered.

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 your right-of-way permit. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your registration or permit. 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.
