Perry excavation permit bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
The City of Perry requires a $5,000 bond as a condition of an excavation permit in its rights-of-way. Ours is $275 flat — the minimum premium, because 3% of $5,000 falls below it. The application is five minutes, and permit bonds like this are among the fastest things we issue.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
When you cut, dig, or open the City of Perry's streets and rights-of-way, the City wants assurance you'll backfill, restore, and repair what you disturb. It conditions an excavation permit on a $5,000 surety bond — a restoration-and-compliance guarantee standing behind your work in the public right-of-way.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Perry (the obligee). If you fail to restore the right-of-way or leave damage to City property, the City can recover against the bond to make repairs.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore their work sites and follow the City's permit conditions treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
