What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond actually covers
The City of Odessa requires a right-of-way construction bond from anyone excavating, boring, cutting pavement, or building within the City's public right-of-way. The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to restore streets, sidewalks, and utilities you disturb back to the City's specifications.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Odessa (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a contractor leaves a defective trench, damages city infrastructure, or fails to restore the right-of-way, the City can recover against the bond.
Because the scope varies by job, the City sets the bond amount on your permit. Enter that figure and we quote your price — 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — plus one soft credit check that never touches your score.
