About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Colleyville controls excavation in its streets, alleys, and rights-of-way, and conditions an excavation permit on a $2,500 surety bond. It is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee: that you backfill and restore the right-of-way to city standards and follow the permit's terms.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Colleyville (the obligee). If you damage public infrastructure, leave an excavation unrestored, or violate the permit, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way and follow the permit treat the bond as a routine permit formality.
