Questions about this bond
Does every use of the ROW follow the excavation route?
No. The city separately describes non-excavating storage/closures, excavation and franchise utility permits. Identify the actual activity first.
Can every contractor use the reviewed general excavation form?
The reviewed form is expressly for simple homeowner/plumber projects at the outer fringe of ROW. Obtain the correct application for larger work or franchise installations.
Is the excavation bond amount fixed?
No fixed amount is supplied by this catalog option, and the reviewed simple-project form leaves the amount to staff. Obtain the city's amount for your actual permit.
Does issuance replace utility marking or start notice?
No. The reviewed form requires separate utility-location coordination and Engineering contact at least 72 hours before work. Follow the conditions of the applicable issued permit.
