Questions about this bond
Does the requirement only concern city-funded projects?
Boulder's licensing page says the covered right-of-way and utility work needs the license whether or not performed for the city. Match the city-defined work scope.
Does the bond only concern construction completion?
The city's requirement also includes repair of damaged improvements and maintenance for two years after acceptance, along with safety and city-standard performance.
Is a two-year bond term offered here?
No fixed term is displayed. The city's two-year post-acceptance maintenance responsibility should not be mistaken for a selected provider term.
