What this bond does

Provide City of East Ridge security for the permitted street/sidewalk excavation, repair or occupation described in the city condition.

Who needs it
Contractors requesting East Ridge street-cut or related excavation/obstruction permission.
Who it protects
The city form addresses restoration and indemnifying East Ridge for covered loss, damage or injury arising from the work. It does not replace the permit, separate insurance or traffic-control approval.

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.

Use the surety condition, not the cash-deposit figure

The packet describes cash deposits that vary with pavement and restoration exposure, with acceptable surety as an alternative. Its attached contractor bond separately prints $25,000 and 24 months.

Have the city/provider confirm the requested form, sum and dates. Do not substitute the cash-deposit amount or a neighboring city’s annual arrangement for the condition on this form.

Describe the actual opening and closure

The packet requires a separate permit for each property address. Prepare the location, dimensions, nearest intersection, work description, dates, emergency contact and detailed sketch.

Lane/full-street closures have separate notice and traffic-plan requirements. Obtain approval of the work, restoration and closure arrangements; security does not itself permit blocking a lane or sidewalk.

Arrange inspections and clarify continuing duties

Compare the provider application with the city form before purchase. Submit the executed instrument and other documents as directed and obtain the permit before ordinary work.

The packet calls for inspections before specified backfill stages and distinguishes maintenance from broader repair liability. Confirm completion, the 24-month bond dates and any surviving duties; temporary patching or expiration is not proof that all responsibilities are discharged.

Questions about this bond

Does the cash-deposit schedule establish the bond amount?

No. The packet’s separate surety form prints $25,000. Match the actual requested instrument.

Can one permit automatically cover every address?

The packet requires a separate permit for each property address.

Does the 24-month form eliminate every later repair duty?

Do not assume so. The packet separately discusses maintenance and broader continuing repair liability. Confirm the condition and closeout.
