What this bond does

Provide the Township of Lyndhurst with the accepted road-opening maintenance security for the named site. The posted packet treats the opening application, sewer-tap selection and maintenance escrow documentation as related but distinct parts of the submission.

Who needs it
A property owner or contractor arranging a Lyndhurst road opening, including a project that also requires a sewer tap. The packet separately identifies the owner, applicant, contractor and bonding company.
Who it protects
The requested document concerns the maintenance security associated with the road opening. Match the actual surety undertaking to the Township's accepted form rather than treating it as a guarantee of every part of the private construction project.

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.

Identify the opening and any separate sewer tap

The Township's posted application asks for the applicant, property owner, location, purpose of opening, side of street, excavation start and backfill completion dates. It has separate road-opening and sewer-tap selections.

The attached Road Opening Maintenance Bond Escrow Form asks for the property owner, site, contractor and bonding company, together with the bond amount and number or check information. Prepare those identities consistently rather than entering the contractor's name in every field.

Follow the maintenance-security routing in the packet

The packet lists $5,000 for road-opening/bond escrow and directs that the attached form be sent to the Tax Office with a surety bond or check for $5,000. A copy is to be retained for Public Works records.

Confirm the accepted surety form and any project-specific conditions with the Township before purchase. The posted packet is marked updated May 1, 2022; it does not establish a universal bond expiration, cancellation period or release deadline for every current project.

Issue the bond, file it and obtain the work approval

Purchase Now retains the existing Propeller Lyndhurst offering. Have the Township's accepted form, required applicant and recipient wording, property location and approved security amount ready before proceeding.

After issuance, complete the maintenance escrow form and deliver the security through the Township's instructed Tax Office process, retaining the Public Works copy. Obtain the road-opening and any sewer-tap approval before starting; buying the bond does not grant either permission.

Ask how the Township will inspect restoration, document maintenance acceptance and authorize release. Do not infer a fixed term from the planned excavation or backfill dates.
