Does Purchase Now let me choose individual or blanket security?
This page provides one link, not separate individual and blanket options. Confirm the arrangement, accepted form, amount, and dates with DPW and the provider before applying.
Does an emailed permit automatically authorize work?
The packet says the applicant must sign the emailed permit before it takes effect. Complete DPW's applicable authorization and signoffs separately from the bond purchase.
