What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond actually covers
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, with premiums set at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
