What this bond does

Security to the City of Fort Lauderdale for the named ROW permit improvements and required restoration, reconstruction, and repair.

Who needs it
The actual prime contractor or qualifying ROW subcontractor signing the relevant permit, using the City's required performance-bond template.
Who it protects
The City instrument addresses permitted improvements and affected paving, shoulders, drainage swales, and other structures. It provides specified default remedies and continuing restoration security, not an unrestricted guarantee of every private project.

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 actual contractor and required template

Apply for the permit and obtain Engineering's stated sum. The latest City template is mandatory; identify the contracting firm, detailed permitted work and footage, project/address, and ROW permit number. Prepare its execution requirements and original signed, raised-seal power of attorney. The City calls for the original bond to be hand-delivered to DSD Engineering. Cash-depositor refund rules are not the surety bond's cancellation terms.

Plan for acceptance and the later bond inspection

The performance instrument continues for one year after City approval/acceptance, with an inspection requested within its stated pre-anniversary window; damage can keep it in force. Its notice provisions do not excuse continuation through required obligations, and premature expiration is a default. The City's guidance also lists activity-specific eligibility and possible special conditions: confirm the actual permit/form release process. The provider option displays no fixed amount or term. Purchase Now opens Propeller; check and deliver the issued original and complete actual permit issuance separately.

Questions about this bond

Can an owner or developer use this surety route?

The City's guidance reserves surety to the permit-signing prime/subcontractor and directs owners/developers to cash security.

Can I upload a substitute bond or copy?

The City requires its latest template and original document, with the stated original power of attorney and execution requirements.

Is one year from purchase the release date?

The instrument uses City acceptance and a later inspection, not the purchase date. Obtain the actual activity-specific conditions and release instructions.
