The City of Denison requires a contractor to file a $10,000 right-of-way bond before working in its sidewalks, streets, alleys, easements, or other public ways — ours is $100 flat, set by our carrier's rate book for this bond. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















A right-of-way permit bond is one of the simplest things in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Fixed-amount permit bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your City of Denison right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
The City of Denison requires a $10,000 right-of-way bond before a contractor does construction, excavation, or other work in city sidewalks, boulevards, alleys, easements, or other public ways. It's a restoration guarantee: it stands behind your properly restoring any public surface you disturb to City standards.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Denison (the obligee). If you damage the right-of-way and leave it unrestored or below standard, the City can repair it and recover its cost against the bond.
The bond must be held for the duration of the work and an additional period afterward, as the City requires. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information, because this bond doesn't need it.
