LaGrange County, IN — Right Of Way Permit Bond

LaGrange County's ROW application uses an Owner/authorized-agent process and a work-based security calculator, subject to Highway approval. Match the actual project and County Board recipient; a sample bond with the application is not final accepted security or permission to start.

What this bond does

County-requested project security for the actual permitted LaGrange County ROW/property work.

Who needs it
The Owner identified in the County application and its duly authorized agent, with proof of authority and contractor information as required.
Who it protects
The accepted project instrument defines surety liability to the County Board. The Owner's broad risk, repair and indemnity responsibilities are not proof of unlimited bond coverage or private-property access rights.

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.

Describe the operation before calculating security

The Highway page requires prior approval for County-property/ROW work; the application directs driveway work to a separate driveway form. Supply Owner/agent, purpose, locations/surfaces, equipment/cut depth, dates, traffic plan, plans/specifications, map and the other required permits/agency information.

The posted calculator lists asphalt openings at $20,000 per location, gravel/other openings at $10,000 per location and adjacent underground work at $10,000 per 500 feet. Bores/pushes have different $5,000 or $20,000 classifications. Have Highway approve the actual quantities/classification and total; do not use the smallest line as a universal minimum.

The terms favor roadway crossings without disturbing pavement/paved shoulders and consider open cuts only without reasonable alternatives. Confirm the actual approved method and plan; security is not independent permission to choose an open cut.

Submit accepted security before work, then complete County review

Unless waived, the terms require acceptable check, LOC or bond before ROW work, identifying the project and Board of Commissioners of LaGrange County as recipient. The application permits a purchased or sample insurance/bond for review; obtain accepted final security and separate required insurance before relying on authorization.

Purchase Now opens Propeller; the option displays no fixed amount or term. Match the actual County-approved sum, legal Owner/principal/Board wording, form and dates. The permit is void without the Administrator's signature and normally expires one year from issuance unless extended—this does not establish the provider term.

The terms call for written notice at least seven days before ROW work and within seven days after completion. They include one-year restoration responsibilities and require Highway inspection before bond release. Obtain the actual restoration acceptance and release/continuation instructions, not just an assumed release on the permit anniversary.

Questions about this bond

Is $5,000 the standard amount for every County ROW project?

No. It is one bore/push classification in a calculator with other sums and units. Have Highway approve the actual work/quantities and total.

Is a sample bond submitted for review permission to begin?

No. The application allows sample documentation, but the terms require acceptable security before work unless waived and the permit needs the Administrator's signature.

Does the one-year permit automatically release the security?

No. Permit expiration, restoration duties and surety release are distinct; Highway must inspect before release. No fixed provider term is displayed.
