Questions about this bond
Is this only for excavation beneath pavement?
The ordinance also addresses obstructions and driveway entrances on Town-controlled or maintained roads. Confirm the actual activity and permit request.
Who sets the amount and period?
The Public Works Director determines the appropriate amount and period; the ordinance separately addresses security acceptable to the First Selectman.
Does the one-year permit limit set my bond term?
No. Work-completion time under the permit and the director's security period are separate. This purchase option displays no fixed term.
