What this bond does
Match this offering to the actual Hammond public-street, sidewalk or alley opening security request.
- Who needs it
- The responsible opening/occupation applicant, with the owner and contractor roles and actual City-required principal confirmed.
- Who it protects
- The accepted City instrument defines secured opening/restoration duties and surety liability. General permit safety or owner liability does not establish a universal bond sum or guarantee every private contract.

Questions about this bond
Is the $5,000 sidewalk-builder bond automatically the Street Opening minimum?
No such equivalence is established. Section 101.123 is a separate sidewalk-builder licensing provision; obtain the actual opening security request.
Is bond payment the special excavation permit?
No. Published Section 101.080 requires its own written special permit. Complete actual City approval separately from issuance and accepted filing.
Can I skip City inspection after filling the opening?
The published rules call for completion notice and inspection. Obtain actual acceptance and separately check the issued bond's release/continuation conditions.
