What this bond does

The city's land-disturbance program addresses activities that create bare soil or change erosion and sediment conditions. Its public guidance describes runoff/pollutant controls such as silt fencing, inlet protection and site stabilization, but does not print this bond's complete conditions.

Who needs it
The applicant or other principal identified in the city's security request for the site. Leavenworth provides separate land-disturbance and excavation permit applications; use the one actually required instead of assuming the two requests are interchangeable.
Who it protects
This is project-related land-disturbance security where requested, not a general contractor credential or liability policy. The accepted bond form must establish the legal principal, city recipient and secured obligation; the guidance page alone does not supply them.

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.

Start with the site plan and the city's bond request

The city describes initial submission as the completed applicable permit application and a site plan showing best management practices. Its published guidance uses a disturbance threshold of over 100 square feet and expressly says some projects need additional information and bonds. That permit discussion is not proof of a universal bond requirement.

Have the actual security form, required sum, dates and filing directions. Do not turn a typical control measure on the guidance page into a promised surety obligation or assume a final inspection/release procedure that the page does not provide.

Sources

Have these ready

Questions about this bond

Does every land-disturbance permit need a bond?

The public city guidance says some projects may require bonds. Obtain the security request for this project rather than treating the permit threshold as a bond mandate.

Are land-disturbance and excavation applications identical?

The city publishes separate applications. Confirm the permit and corresponding security required for the work; do not substitute a street excavation obligation for site-disturbance security.

How do I apply for the requested bond?

Follow Purchase Now to the Propeller application, which opens in a new tab. Verify the actual principal, city recipient, project, form, amount and dates. Provider review and issuance come before execution and filing, and do not issue the city permit.
