What this bond does

Help an applicant match Bowling Green's excavation/right-of-way security request to this Propeller option and the separate work permit.

Who needs it
Contractors or other applicants who have received a Bowling Green, Ohio bonding request for excavation or street right-of-way work.
Who it protects
The issued and accepted bond determines the City-facing work obligation and liability. The City's licensing and permit guidance does not by itself establish the exact coverage or release terms of this catalog offering.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Identify the work and contractor category

Bowling Green's linked January 2023 guidance lists $5,000 bonds for concrete/blacktop, plumbing and other utility contractors, with different licensing treatment. Have Public Works confirm the current amount and form for your activity; equal sums do not make those instruments interchangeable.

Describe whether the work concerns a street opening, water or sanitary connection, storm line, irrigation, gas, sidewalk, driveway or curb cut. The published guidance gives irrigation its own plumbing and owner-waiver requirements. Do not substitute those conditions for every excavation.

Use the current permit process

The current Public Works page directs applicants to the City's online permit portal and asks them to contact Public Works before work in City right-of-way. This is different from older indexed instructions describing fax, email or mail.

Confirm the legal applicant, City recipient, accepted bond form, sum, effective dates and filing procedure before continuing to Propeller. Check the issued instrument and obtain the applicable permit separately. A bond purchase does not authorize an opening or approve restoration.

Questions about this bond

Does the posted $5,000 figure prove every contractor bond is the same?

No. The City's linked guidance lists that sum in several categories with different licensing treatment. Public Works must identify the instrument for your excavation request.

Should I follow an old fax or email permit instruction?

The current Public Works page directs applications to the City's online portal. Use that current process or ask Public Works for help.

Do irrigation conditions apply to every street opening?

No. The City's guidance addresses irrigation separately, including plumbing qualification and an owner waiver. Match the conditions to the actual activity.

What bond term and release conditions apply?

Those are not supplied by this option or verified for its exact instrument in the general City guidance. Obtain the accepted form and written requirements before issuance.
