What it is and who needs it.
What the street work bond covers
When you cut pavement, trench, or work in a street or right of way in the City of Milton, the City conditions the permit on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a public-protection guarantee that you will restore the right of way to City standards and leave it safe.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Milton (the obligee). If you leave a hazard or fail to restore the right of way, the City can recover its cost against the $5,000 bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore properly treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the $5,000 amount at $100 flat, with no credit check on this bond.

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.
