Questions about this bond
Does Option D cover ROW grading?
The city form includes grading in the ROW with the driveway/tie-in undertaking. Have Public Works confirm the actual covered work and permit.
Will this approve my driveway location?
No. The bond secures the covered permit undertaking. Entrance approval and work authorization remain separate city decisions.
Is every driveway bond the same amount?
The reviewed form leaves the amount blank. Obtain Public Works' required amount for the actual work rather than selecting an assumed minimum.
What ends the active-permit obligation?
The form ties cancellation for specified active permits to satisfactory completion determined by Public Works. Obtain its documented decision and follow the actual release instructions.
