What this bond does

This page concerns Massillon street-opening or right-of-way excavation security. The city treats ROW excavation separately from curb/sidewalk/driveway and sanitary-sewer contractor requirements.

Who needs it
Contractors arranging Massillon Engineering security and permission for the actual right-of-way opening or excavation.
Who it protects
The city's accepted condition must define the contractor's covered work and restoration duties. The public amount listing does not establish that every provider instrument has identical wording or covers other contractor categories.

Choose from 2 options

Each option is a separate record. Where a term, bond amount, premium, or E&O limit is known, it is listed; match it to what your requirement asks for.

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 ROW excavation category

Engineering's published Right-of-Way Excavation section lists a $10,000 bond per calendar year and separate liability-insurance evidence. It directs applicants to request the license application from the department and obtain the applicable work permit.

The page separately lists curb, sidewalk and driveway work and sanitary-sewer requirements, even though those listings also show $10,000 security. Matching the amount alone does not establish the correct instrument or substitute for another required approval.

Compare the actual condition behind each option

Option 1 opens Propeller's Right-of-Way Opening Permit Bond application. Option 2 opens RLI's Street Opening Bond application. Neither option supplies an independently verified amount or term in this catalog, and they have no recorded preferred-equivalent relationship.

Obtain Engineering's current form and have the provider confirm it will issue that condition for your contractor and activity. Do not choose on the assumption that the two titles prove identical acceptance, or that a general building-contractor bond meets this request.

Keep calendar-year security and work permission distinct

The city lists the bond per calendar year but says the work permit is void 120 days after issuance. Confirm effective dates, any continuation instructions and restoration/release conditions separately; those two periods describe different parts of the process.

Once the provider confirms the form, apply through that option, review the issued bond and provide it as Engineering directs. Obtain the work permit and arrange inspections; provider issuance alone does not license the contractor or authorize the opening.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Identify the ROW excavation work, address and responsible contractor.
  2. Request Engineering's current application and accepted bond condition.
  3. Confirm the published $10,000 requirement and applicable dates with the city.
  4. Match one provider instrument, file the issued bond and complete the separate work-permit process.

Questions about this bond

What security does Engineering list for ROW excavation?

A $10,000 bond per calendar year, with separate liability-insurance evidence and a work-permit process.

Are the Propeller and RLI options verified equivalents?

No equivalent relationship is recorded. Compare the proposed instrument with Engineering's required condition before choosing.

Does a 120-day permit mean a 120-day bond?

No. The page lists calendar-year bond security and separately says the work permit is void after 120 days. Obtain the bond's actual dates and release instructions.

Can a different $10,000 contractor bond be substituted?

Do not assume so. Engineering lists ROW excavation, curb/sidewalk/driveway and sanitary-sewer categories separately; the requested condition and activity matter.
