Belgrade, MT — Right Of Way Excavation Bond
Belgrade's published June 2024 ROW packet includes an excavation bond payable to the City and security of $4,000 or 125% of estimated work cost, whichever is greater. It separates the work permit from a restoration obligation extending after City acceptance. Confirm the current packet and filing route with Public Works before issuance; current application instructions could not be fully verified.

What this bond does
Prepare City-accepted security for the actual Belgrade ROW excavation and restoration request, using the applicable current form and assigned amount.
- Who needs it
- The named permit applicant/principal, distinguishing the contractor doing the work and identifying the street limits, excavation and any proposed closure.
- Who it protects
- The published bond secures excavation compliance and indemnification/reimbursement for maintenance, repairs or replacements during its guarantee obligation. It is not a contractor license or authorization to cut the street.

Questions about this bond
Is $4,000 always enough?
The June 2024 packet uses $4,000 or 125% of estimated work cost, whichever is greater. Have Public Works confirm the current requirement for the actual project.
Does the six-month permit end the restoration obligation?
No. The published packet separately measures the restoration warranty and minimum security continuation from City acceptance. Confirm the issued instrument's dates.
Should I simply use the old packet's email instructions?
Confirm the current application and executed-bond filing routes with Public Works first. The printed June 2024 directions do not establish today's accepted submission process.
