What this bond does

City of Milford security for street-opening duties under its ordinances and official directions. The posted bond covers work during a stated year ending on a completed date.

Who needs it
Principals furnishing Milford's accepted Street Opening Bond for their permitted operations.
Who it protects
The posted form protects the City against specified losses, costs, and damages from nonperformance of street-opening duties. It is not liability insurance for the contractor or a promise covering unrelated construction.

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.

Complete the City's work-period fields

The posted Official Bond states $10,000, identifies the principal and surety, and has effective-date and year-ending fields. Confirm the accepted current form, legal principal, sum, and dates with Engineering. No fixed amount or term is displayed in this option; a printed year-ending field is not a verified twelve-month purchase term.

Prepare each opening and file the issued bond

The August 2025 application asks for city-license details, the street between cross streets, excavation purpose, owner, sketch, start/completion dates, traffic blocking, CBYD reference, and separate insurance. It requires the signature of a bonded person. Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab; check and deliver the issued City form as directed, then complete the applicable opening and traffic approvals. Security for work during a year does not authorize every site.

Questions about this bond

Does the posted bond concern only one excavation?

Its wording covers work during the stated year-ending period. Ask Engineering how it applies to your permits; each opening still has its own application information.

Can I skip the opening application once the bond is issued?

No. Prepare the City's contractor, location, work, CBYD, traffic, and insurance information and obtain the applicable permit approval.

Is a fixed calendar year or twelve-month term offered here?

No fixed term is displayed. Confirm the effective/year-ending dates required on the accepted form and the provider arrangement.
