What it is and who needs it.
What the encroachment bond actually covers
When you build a driveway approach, sidewalk, or other improvement inside the Sugarcreek Township right-of-way, the township requires a right-of-way (encroachment) permit and an encroachment bond filed with it. The bond stands behind the permit: that you complete the work to township standards and restore the right-of-way.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Sugarcreek Township (the obligee). If you leave the right-of-way improvement unfinished or out of compliance and the township has to make it right, it can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the township, you repay the surety. The amount is set by the township on your permit and is generally tied to the cost of the improvement in the right-of-way — enter that figure and your price is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum.

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.
