North Hempstead, NY — Right Of Way Bond
North Hempstead's Highway FAQ calls for either a $10,000 performance bond naming the Town or a $2,000 certified check for road-opening security. Confirm the accepted instrument and job requirements before applying; the deposit's return process is not automatically the surety's term.

What this bond does
Provide the accepted Town security for work within its roadway, curb strip, sidewalk or affected driveway area. North Hempstead is a different requesting authority from the Town or Village of Hempstead.
- Who needs it
- A licensed contractor seeking a North Hempstead road-opening permit, including curb cuts, sidewalk or utility-related work. The parties actually performing the work must possess the permit.
- Who it protects
- The Town identifies performance security alongside separate permit and insurance requirements. Restoration inspections and the accepted surety wording determine closeout; issuance does not approve the work.

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.

Questions about this bond
Can the $2,000 certified check be treated as a $2,000 surety bond?
No. The FAQ lists different security arrangements: a $10,000 performance bond or a $2,000 certified check. Match the accepted instrument rather than combining their amounts.
Does the 90-day deposit process set the bond's term?
That is not established. The FAQ describes check holding, inspections and a return claim. Ask for the accepted surety's dates and release instructions separately.
Are Hempstead Town or Village requirements interchangeable with these?
No. Confirm North Hempstead as the recipient and use its accepted form and work-permit process.
