Questions about this bond
How do I know whether my job is in the downtown category?
Ask Blue Ash Public Works to classify the address and work limits. The published requirements list downtown separately but do not establish a boundary for your particular job.
Can I select downtown just because my requested sum is $5,000?
Not on that basis alone. The City also lists $5,000 for designated main arterials. Match the category and instrument to the City's written request.
Does this cover every downtown job I perform?
Do not assume repeated-work coverage. The City offers a distinct blanket arrangement for several jobs, and each job or area still requires an individual work permit.
Does the bond replace the City's inspection?
No. For excavation, arrange inspection at least 24 hours before backfill and follow the permit's restoration and approval requirements.
