What this bond does

Secure the street-opening obligation of the correctly identified Butler Township permit applicant.

Who needs it
Applicants planning an opening or excavation under a Butler Township permit request.
Who it protects
An opening bond secures the obligations in its approved condition. It does not grant permission to excavate or establish that every Pennsylvania township with the same name uses the same requirements.

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 township and county

The published Butler Township Public Works page at butlertwp.org describes openings and excavations in township streets and rights-of-way. This catalog record does not establish the county strongly enough to assume that every requirement on that website applies to your offering.

Compare the township’s full name, county, permit office and bond recipient with the provider’s condition. Resolve any mismatch before issuance.

What the published opening guidance says

For work governed by that township guidance, the written application goes to the Township Manager and identifies the exact opening location and approximate width or depth. Security is 110% of restoration costs determined by the Road Superintendent, in a form approved by the Township Manager or Solicitor.

The page specifies a 36-month bond period. It separately states permit-work commencement and completion limits. Those work limits should not be confused with the bond period, and these published requirements are not a fixed catalog amount.

Proceed with the matching condition

Ask the responsible township to confirm the required form, restoration estimate, sum and dates. The purchase option itself supplies no fixed amount or term.

Use the existing link only after that comparison. Once issued, post the executed security with the appropriate township office and obtain the permit; the bond transaction does not authorize the opening.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Full township and county name from the permit request.
  2. Applicant name, exact location, opening dimensions and restoration estimate.
  3. Required security wording, amount, dates and township submission instructions.

Questions about this bond

Does the 110% figure apply to every Butler Township?

No. It comes from the specific published township guidance cited here. Confirm the jurisdiction and applicability before using that calculation.

Is the published 36-month bond period the time allowed to finish work?

No. That guidance treats bond duration and permitted work timing separately. Follow the actual permit’s deadlines and the issued bond’s dates.

Does this buy a road-occupancy permit too?

No. A bond purchase does not issue a township permit. Ask the township whether the activity needs opening, occupancy or other authorization.
