Questions about this bond
How do the continuing and single-job amounts differ?
The selected instructions state $1,000 minimum for excavation security and allow a continuing bond ordinarily at least $2,500 or another sum Council requires/approves. Obtain the actual assignment.
Does a continuing bond remove the need for work approval?
No. Security is separate from the packet's individual work application, DPW approval and permit expiry. Confirm required approvals for each activity.
Can I submit the form directly from the City website?
The current forms page expressly says no. Save and send the completed attachment or print/deliver as instructed; separately confirm how DPW accepts executed surety.
