Questions about this bond
What amount appears on Clayton's annual work bond?
The published Annual Excavation and Restoration Bond states $25,000. Have the Service Department confirm that it is the form requested for your work.
Does an owner doing all the work still need a permit?
Yes. Clayton's permit page allows a bond waiver when the property owner performs all the work, but retains the permit and inspection requirements.
Is the annual form enough for every utility project?
Not necessarily. The utility application provides for a city-determined construction bond and a removal bond when applicable. Confirm the required instruments instead of assuming they are interchangeable.
Do the warranty and annual work authority use the same date?
The form distinguishes the bond anniversary from acceptance and initial city approval milestones. Keep those records and obtain the city's instructions for continuing work or closing the obligation.
