What this bond does

Lee County Board of County Commissioners security for the identified ROW construction permit and compliance with its applicable requirements.

Who needs it
Contractors or property-owner permittees directed to furnish single-permit security for County-maintained roadway, drainage ROW, or easement work.
Who it protects
The posted single-permit form indemnifies the County for losses from failure to comply with governing ROW requirements. Restoration and permit compliance, rather than every private construction promise, define the context.

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.

Use the single-permit request and actual County amount

The current commercial application expressly limits acceptance to single-use permit bonds, although posted AC-11-12 still describes a multiple-permit alternative. For individual security, the code lists 110% of estimated construction cost with a $5,000 minimum and possible additional security. Obtain DOT's actual sum and accepted form. Prepare the complete STRAP/parcel number, matching DO/LDO reference where applicable, actual work category, MOT, and separate insurance.

Separate permit expiration, warranty, and cancellation

AC-11-12 generally gives the work permit 90 days unless another date is stated; it separately requires security through 12 months after final inspection/acceptance unless otherwise specified. Its single form allows surety termination on 30 days' written notice without removing accrued liability. Confirm the actual dates and release with DOT. The provider option displays no fixed amount or term. Purchase Now opens Propeller; check and file the issued bond and obtain actual permit approval before work.

Questions about this bond

Can I use the old multiple-permit alternative?

The posted commercial application now says only single-use permit bonds are accepted. Obtain DOT's current written directions for the actual request.

Does the 90-day permit define the security period?

No. The code separates work-permit expiration from security during the post-acceptance warranty.

Does cancellation remove existing liability?

The posted single form preserves incurred or accrued liability. Confirm the actual accepted instrument and any required continuation before changing coverage.
