What this bond does

The permit process concerns cuts or excavations in or under streets, alleys, sidewalks, parkways or driveways within the city right-of-way. Its restoration directions require original-or-better conditions under city construction standards; the packet is not a complete surety bond contract.

Who needs it
The applicant or contractor named in the city's bond request. The permit packet separately records contractor, subcontractor and project/private-owner information, so the party doing the work is not automatically interchangeable with every other project contact.
Who it protects
Keep permit security distinct from the required insurance and from traffic-control authorization. A paving-cut bond does not itself authorize a road closure, satisfy TxDOT approval or establish coverage for unrelated private-site excavation.

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.

Prepare the bond before the city permit application

The published packet directs first-time business registration and current bond/insurance submission through the city's One Stop Shop before applying for the permit. It also calls for traffic-control and paving-cut plans and applicable jurisdiction/approval documents.

The permit application's stated advance-submission period is not a surety issuance promise. Obtain the accepted bond form, legal names, amount and dates rather than deriving them from permit duration. After issuance and execution, file the bond under the city's current directions and separately obtain the required permits.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Have the city bond/insurance request and business-registration status.
  2. Confirm the legal principal, city recipient, accepted form, sum and dates.

  4. Keep traffic-control, utility-locate and any TxDOT/county approvals with the permit materials.

Questions about this bond

Is traffic control included in bond issuance?

No. The city separately addresses temporary traffic-control authorization and paving-cut permission. Buying the bond does not approve either permit or outside-jurisdiction work.

Can I use the permit's duration as the bond term?

Not from this packet. It provides permit-process instructions but no complete bond term. Use the city's accepted security form and requested dates.

Where do I apply for the security?
