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.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $2,500 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with your permit. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Colleyville for your excavation permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $2,500 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
