What this bond does
The current city requirements page and ROW registration packet call for a $25,000 Performance Excavation Bond. They establish the registration/security context, but do not reproduce the full surety undertaking or its cancellation/release conditions.
- Who needs it
- The ROW contracting business required to provide security to the City of Laredo. The application distinguishes the business/owner, authorized permit representative and after-hours contact; identify the actual legal bond principal and signers rather than using a contact name.
- Who it protects
- The bond is separate from liability/auto coverage, workers' compensation and work-zone traffic-control training. An insurance certificate naming the city is not the surety instrument, and buying the bond does not itself register the contractor or issue a ROW permit.

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.

Questions about this bond
Is this listed for all general contractors?
The reviewed page places performance/excavation security in the ROW contractor requirements, separately from its general-contractor category. Match the actual registration request.
Does the insurance certificate satisfy the bond requirement?
No. The ROW packet separately lists the excavation performance bond and insurance/training evidence. Use the city's accepted surety instrument.
