What this bond does

City of Jacksonville security for the contractor's identified City ROW permits and required repair, replacement, and restoration.

Who needs it
Contractors performing City ROW work, including owners acting as their own contractor, under the actual Development Services request.
Who it protects
The City forms address permit compliance and restoring affected roads/pavement, with specified City or adjoining-owner losses and safety-protection expenses caused by the stated failures. They concern the permitted work, not every private construction contract.

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.

Confirm City jurisdiction and the work category

Development Services distinguishes City ROW/easements from FDOT, private roads, and other non-City easements. Its examples separate a $10,000 residential-driveway bond from the $50,000 other-ROW-work form; confirm the actual accepted request and provider-issued document. Nonstandard construction requires the owner's separate revocable permit first. Traffic impacts require approved MOT, and major buried utilities have separate site-plan review.

File the original before the permit application

The City requires the original sealed bond delivered in person or by mail to the Review Group; standard ROW applications use JAXEPICS. The example bond states one year, while most work permits last six months and annual-maintenance permits differ; pavement maintenance also has its own post-completion clock. Confirm actual dates and continuation. The RLI option displays no fixed amount or term. Purchase Now opens RLI in a new tab; check and file the issued original and obtain actual City work authorization.

Questions about this bond

Is the same form used for residential driveways and all other work?

The City posts separate examples with different sums. Confirm the correct request and issued document; this page does not add new provider choices.

Can an owner doing the work avoid contractor requirements?

The City treats an owner performing the work as the contractor for these requirements.

Does a one-year bond make the work permit valid for a year?

The City distinguishes the bond term, most six-month work permits, annual-maintenance permits, and post-completion pavement maintenance.
