About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Round Rock conditions a right-of-way permit — to excavate, lay utilities, or work in city streets, sidewalks and easements — on a $5,000 surety bond. It is a public-infrastructure guarantee that you restore the right-of-way and follow the City's permit conditions.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Round Rock (the obligee). If you fail to restore the right-of-way or damage public improvements, the City can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Permittees who restore their cuts properly treat the bond as a routine condition of the permit.

City of Round Rock right-of-way permitThe City of Round Rock requires this $5,000 bond as a condition of a right-of-way permit; the amount and terms are set by the City's Transportation/Public Works permitting. We do not cite a specific ordinance number because the requirement is administered locally — confirm details on your permit packet.

After you buy

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 $5,000 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 the City of Round Rock. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Round Rock right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $5,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
