Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure on your Trotwood permit and the premium updates.
A right-of-way permit bond is a restoration guarantee to the City of Trotwood. When you open or work in the public right-of-way, the city wants a financial backstop that you'll restore the street, sidewalk, or grass to its standards and follow the permit conditions.
Most right-of-way work — utility taps, driveway approaches, fiber and underground installs — touches infrastructure the city owns, so the bond stands behind your restoration if anything is left damaged.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Trotwood (the obligee). We issue the amount the city set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the city set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
