What this bond does

The county highway-use process addresses utilities crossing or occupying rights-of-way under the Board of Medina County Commissioners. It is distinct from the county's special-hauling, driveway and stormwater processes.

Who needs it
The contractor, owner or utility applicant responsible for covered Medina County highway-use work.
Who it protects
The posted Highway Use Manual describes performance security for damage and disturbed-area maintenance resulting from failure to perform the permitted utility work. The accepted condition and county-determined sum govern the particular obligation.

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.

Prepare the highway-use work details

The application is addressed to the Board of Medina County Commissioners through the County Engineer. It asks for the road, township, location, duration, responsible applicant and contractor, with plans showing the installation relative to pavement, right-of-way and property lines.

Bores, pole lines, aerial crossings and pipelines require different project details. If pavement must be opened, the application asks why no reasonable alternative is available and requests the opening's length, width and depth. Bring the actual work method rather than selecting a form from the county name alone.

Obtain the security amount and completion condition

The application requires the permit bond and certificate of insurance before issuance. The posted manual's utility section describes a performance/permit bond, certified check or approved escrow for the amount established by county resolution. It does not supply one universal amount in that provision.

For normal permits, the manual describes security remaining in force for 90 days following completion, with weather-dependent restoration handled as the Engineer deems appropriate. Confirm the current accepted condition and release instructions. That is not simply a 90-day period starting when the provider issues the bond.

Apply, file and complete county review

Purchase Now opens RLI's existing Medina County Right of Way Bond application. Provide the county's requested form, amount, applicant and dates; review the issued bond and provide it with the required permit material.

The Permit Department lists different permission periods for multi-address utility projects and individual connections, and says individual connections need their own permits. Neither those periods nor a provider bond application grants blanket permission for later connections. Coordinate construction notices, inspections and restoration acceptance with the Engineer.
