What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Kenosha controls work that touches its public right of way — including the sidewalks and driveway approaches in front of a property. When an owner has sidewalk or driveway work done, Kenosha conditions the permit on a $2,000 performance bond.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Kenosha (the obligee). If the work is left incomplete or out of spec, or it damages the right of way, the city can recover its cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Owners and contractors who finish the work to the city's spec treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
