Questions about this bond
Does blanket mean I can work anywhere without another permit?
No. Blue Ash expressly requires a separate right-of-way work permit for each job or area, even when the contractor supplies blanket bonding.
Is the blanket sum the same as the other-streets sum?
No. The City lists $10,000 for its renewable blanket bond and $3,000 for the other-streets category. Have Public Works confirm which arrangement fits your planned work.
Does the blanket term always run January through December?
Do not assume that. Published guidance refers to an umbrella ending on the last day of the following year. Confirm the actual dates and continuation instructions with the City.
Does renewal satisfy restoration requirements?
No. Each permit carries work, inspection and restoration duties. Renewing the bond does not establish that the City has accepted repairs or released a particular permit.
