About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Edmond right-of-way bond guarantees

The City of Edmond, Oklahoma requires a $10,000 surety bond from contractors who install, tap, or repair water service lines that cross the public right-of-way. The bond is a public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to restore the street, sidewalk, and city property you disturb, and to do the work to the city's water and right-of-way standards.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Edmond (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If you leave the right-of-way unrestored, damage city water infrastructure, or violate the city's standards, the City of Edmond can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way and work to the city water code treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
