The Village of Whitehouse permits work in its public right-of-way — excavation, boring, trenching, and access work in village streets, sidewalks, and easements. It requires a surety bond before the permit is issued. Whitehouse has required contractors to register before receiving any permit since 2007, and the right-of-way bond is part of that permitting process.
The bond is a three-party guarantee: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Whitehouse (the obligee). It backs the restoration of the right-of-way and protects the village against the cost of repairing damage to public infrastructure left by your work.
It is not insurance for you. If the village draws on the bond to restore the right-of-way, you repay the surety. Contractors who backfill and restore properly treat the bond as a permit formality.
Submit the application with the bond amount the Village of Whitehouse set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with your permit.
