About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

An Alpine excavation permit bond is a restoration guarantee. When you open City of Alpine pavement and backfill a cut, the city wants assurance you will restore the street and surface to its standards and not leave a failing patch behind.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Alpine (the obligee). If your excavation or restoration fails to meet permit conditions, the city can recover the cost of repair against the bond up to $5,000.

The bond stays on file as a condition of your permit. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your $5,000 filing — and your right to pull excavation permits in the city — stays continuous.

City of Alpine — Public Works (excavation permit)The City of Alpine requires a surety bond as a condition of an excavation / pavement-cut permit in the public right-of-way; the $5,000 amount and restoration conditions are set by the city through its Public Works and permitting process. Confirm the exact bond form and amount on your City of Alpine permit application.

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 Alpine. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with Alpine's excavation permit. 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.
