City of Pacific right of
way performance bonds.
The City of Pacific, which straddles the King / Pierce County line, requires a right-of-way performance bond to guarantee work done in the public right of way — that the excavation, utility, or street work is completed to the City's standards and the right of way is restored. The bond is filed with the City's Public Works department. Pricing is quoted on review based on the bond amount the City sets — no credit review at the standard amount — larger bond amounts add a credit-consent step on the form, and you pay nothing until you approve the price.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A right-of-way performance bond is a completion guarantee. When you excavate, run a utility, or do street work in a Pacific right of way, the City wants a financial backstop that the work gets finished to its standards and the right of way is restored.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Pacific (the obligee). If the work is left incomplete or the right of way isn't restored and you don't make it right, the City can recover against the bond.
The bond stays in place until the City accepts the work. We track expirations and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your obligation to the City stays covered.
