What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond actually covers
The City of Brenham controls its public right-of-way — the streets, sidewalks, and easements the city maintains. Before a contractor cuts pavement, bores under a road, or installs facilities in that right-of-way, the city requires a permit and a surety bond.
The bond stands behind restoration of the right-of-way: if you damage city pavement or fail to backfill, repave, and restore your excavation to the city's standard, Brenham can complete the work and recover its costs against the bond. This filing is the sole proprietorship version of the bond.
It is a three-party arrangement: you as sole proprietor (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Brenham (the obligee). If the city pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the city requires at 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum.
