What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Moraine requires a right-of-way bond from contractors working in public sidewalks, streets, highways, or roadways under codified ordinance section 901.19. The $10,000 amount satisfies the city's coverage requirement for all of a contractor's projects within one year, rather than a separate bond for each job.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Moraine (the obligee). The bond guarantees that work in the right-of-way is restored to city standards and that the city is made whole for any damage to public infrastructure.
It is not insurance for you — if the city draws on the bond, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way properly treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
