For larger work in its right-of-way, Ogden City requires a $25,000 surety bond before issuing the permit. Ours is $750 flat, exactly 3% of the bond amount, and the application takes about five minutes. (Smaller work uses the $5,000 version.)
















Right-of-way permit bonds are among the simplest things in surety. Here's the process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit check section.
Fixed-amount municipal bonds like this issue right after purchase for most applicants. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with Ogden City's right-of-way permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$25,000 bond × 3% = $750, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
An Ogden right-of-way permit bond is a restoration and compliance guarantee. When you work in the city's streets and sidewalks, Ogden City wants assurance you will restore the right-of-way to standard and follow the conditions of your permit.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Ogden City (the obligee). If you damage the right-of-way and fail to repair it, the city can recover against the bond up to $25,000.
The bond stays on file as a condition of your permit. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $25,000 filing continuous with the city's engineering / public-ways office.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
