The City of Wenatchee requires a surety bond before it will issue a right-of-way permit for work in its streets and public right of way. The City sets the bond amount with your permit; pricing is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The application collects no credit information at the standard amount.
















No underwriting queue for the standard right-of-way bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the City. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount Wenatchee required on the permit, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No waiting for most applicants — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to the City with your right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the City insists on them.
When you excavate, cut pavement, or work in the public right of way in the City of Wenatchee, the City conditions the permit on a 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 Wenatchee (the obligee). If you fail to backfill, repave, or repair the right of way properly — or leave a hazard — the City can recover its restoration cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right of way to City spec treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount Wenatchee set, from $100, with no credit fields in the application.
Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Wenatchee set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
