Questions about this bond
Is there one fixed Missouri City ROW bond amount?
The application requires an amount equal to or greater than construction cost. Use the project's accepted valuation and required bond wording rather than a fixed amount copied from another jurisdiction.
Is the bond submitted after the permit is issued?
The published ROW application requires the bond with the application. Complete city review and permit issuance before relying on permission to work.
Will the city maintain what I install in its ROW?
The form says Missouri City is not responsible for maintenance of installed ROW items and asks who will maintain them. Identify that party separately from the surety.
