What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
When a contractor or utility works within Menasha's streets and rights-of-way, the City requires a permit and a $10,000 bond. The bond is a public-protection guarantee that you'll restore pavement, curb, and grade to City standards after the work is done.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Menasha (the obligee). If you leave the right-of-way unrestored or damaged, the City can recover restoration costs against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Contractors who backfill, patch, and restore properly treat the bond as a permit formality.
