Questions about this bond
Is Option A limited to paving?
No. The city form also lists sidewalks, curbs, gutter, ADA ramps, stormwater, water/sewer infrastructure and lighting. Match the actual approved improvements.
Is Option A the same as the street-cut bond?
No. Norfolk assigns street cutting/tunneling to Option B. Have Public Works identify all required categories if your project includes both construction and cuts.
Is the bond released when my crew finishes?
The form ties cancellation of security for specified active permits to satisfactory completion determined by Public Works. Keep the city's acceptance and release decision, not just a contractor completion date.
What must be submitted after issuance?
The form requires the original sealed bond with power-of-attorney authorization and its acknowledgments. Follow Public Works' current filing directions and complete permit approval separately.
