About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A Midvale excavation / right-of-way permit bond is a restoration and compliance guarantee. When you open or work in the city's streets and sidewalks, the City of Midvale wants assurance you will restore the right-of-way and follow the conditions of your permit.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Midvale (the obligee). If you damage the right-of-way and fail to repair it, the city can recover 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 stays continuous with the city's Public Works / engineering office.

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 carrier issues this bond for a single two-year term; the term cannot be changed at checkout.

Renewal falls on the statutory date, October 8, in the year your term ends.

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 Midvale. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with Midvale's permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $200 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.
