What this bond does
Addresses requested Brenham right-of-way security for a sole proprietor. The city's request and accepted form must establish the particular obligation rather than a general promise to complete every construction project.
- Who needs it
- An individual operating a sole proprietorship who has been asked to provide Brenham right-of-way security, including a contractor on a covered underground telecommunications application.
- Who it protects
- The accepted bond defines the city's rights for a covered default. Brenham's telecommunications permit conditions separately require repair of damage and restoration of the affected ROW; those duties remain with the responsible applicant.

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.

Questions about this bond
Is this bond required for all construction in Brenham?
The reviewed packet concerns underground telecommunications, not all construction. Confirm the security request for your actual activity and obtain the sole-proprietor bond form before applying.
What happens if I damage city utilities during construction?
The telecommunications packet requires the ROW user to repair affected property at its expense, including damaged utilities, pavement and landscaping, to the city's satisfaction. Buying a bond does not transfer that work to the surety.
Does the bond replace the need for insurance?
No. The telecommunications packet separately requests sufficient performance bond or assurance under §2.04 and current original insurance certificates for the contractor and provider. The insurance instruction does not establish an original-bond filing rule.
Which name belongs on a sole-proprietor bond?
Confirm how the city wants the proprietor's legal name and any trade name shown. Do not use the corporation, LLC or partnership version merely because the business trades under a separate name.
