What this bond does
Support a Blue Ash right-of-way work permit on a street assigned to the City's other-streets bond category.
- Who needs it
- Contractors applying for work in Blue Ash right-of-way outside the downtown and designated main-arterial categories, when the City requires this bond.
- Who it protects
- The bond supports the City's right-of-way work obligation. The permit makes the applicant responsible for excavation, replacement and restoration; bond issuance does not approve the excavation or transfer those duties away from the applicant.

Questions about this bond
Can I use this other-streets bond for downtown work?
Blue Ash lists downtown separately at $5,000. Have Public Works confirm the category for your location before selecting an instrument.
Does a right-of-way permit apply if I am not excavating?
The City's guidance says its work permit is required even when the activity does not involve digging. Describe the work so Public Works can identify the applicable authorization.
Will this bond cover several jobs automatically?
Do not assume that. Blue Ash has a distinct $10,000 blanket option for several jobs, and even blanket users must obtain a permit for each job or area.
What must happen before backfilling?
The applicant must notify the Engineering Technician for inspection at least 24 hours beforehand under the City's published requirements. Bond issuance does not satisfy that notice.
