What this bond does

The county's right-of-way security supports covered aerial or underground work, excavation and restoration under its permit requirements. It is distinct from a City of Green request or a municipality's own street permit.

Who needs it
The applicant or contractor responsible for covered work in Greene County, Ohio right-of-way, with the road and project limits identified for the County Engineer.
Who it protects
The posted requirements connect the performance bond to permitted work, restoration and continued responsibility for the affected area. The Engineer's accepted instrument determines the complete surety condition.

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.

Identify the road and permit category

Prepare the road name, start and end addresses, work description, proposed schedule, contractor and after-hours contacts. The county requirements call for a separate application for each road, plans, insurance documentation and a maintenance-of-traffic plan.

Ask the Engineer which application applies to utility work, a driveway or other right-of-way activity. The posted application says permits are valid for six calendar months; that permission period is not the same as the bond's restoration responsibility.

Have the Engineer calculate the security

The published requirements, labelled effective January 2023, specify a $5,000 minimum for covered work and pavement replacement up to 650 square feet. Additional pavement uses a $15-per-square-foot adjustment, with the stated measurement allowance and rounding; unpaved work has a $4-per-square-foot provision.

Supply dimensions and the work method so the Engineer can determine how those provisions apply rather than calculating a universal amount from a short description. The guidance also allows utility companies a yearly bond based on estimated calendar-year work instead of individual bonds. Confirm whether that alternative applies to your applicant.

File the bond and arrange completion review

Purchase Now opens Propeller's Greene County Right of Way Permit Bond application. Give the provider the county's requested form, sum and dates. Check the issued document, then provide the required copy with the permit application.

The requirements say bonds remain in force for one year from project completion or upon release by the Engineer or designee. The permit application requires the applicant to contact the office when work is complete for final inspection and bond release. Obtain the current applicable dates and release direction; do not assume the six-month permit end automatically releases security.

Questions about this bond

Is $5,000 always the final amount?

No. The posted requirements give that minimum and provide adjustments for pavement and unpaved work. Have the Engineer confirm the calculation for the actual project.

Can a utility company provide yearly security?

The posted guidance permits a utility-company yearly bond based on estimated calendar-year work instead of individual bonds. Confirm eligibility and the required sum with the county.

Does the six-month permit period set the bond term?

No. The application states a six-calendar-month permit period, while the requirements separately address one year from completion or Engineer release.

What is required when the work is finished?

The application directs the applicant to contact the Engineer's office for final inspection and bond release. Keep the county's acceptance records rather than treating physical completion as release.
