What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond actually covers
When a contractor or utility works within Green Bay's streets and rights-of-way — excavating, opening pavement, or placing facilities — the City requires a permit and a surety bond. The bond is a public-protection guarantee that you'll restore pavement, curb, and grade to City standards.
The City of Green Bay Public Works department sets the bond amount based on the scope of your project, so the figure varies from one permit to the next. Premiums are 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — enter the amount on your permit to see your exact price at the application.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Green Bay (the obligee). If you leave the right-of-way unrestored or damaged, the City can recover restoration costs against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
