Match the permit-year bond and continuing obligations

The published bond applies to permits obtained from time to time for work disturbing the surface or subsurface of streets, alleys, boulevards, sidewalks and other public ground. It states $20,000 for each permit year and includes two years of maintenance from final inspection.

Purchase Now retains the Propeller application, whose option specifies no fixed sum or term. Supply the City's accepted form, legal principal, permit-year requirements and dates. The form provides 60 days' written notice to the City for surety cancellation of future liability; it does not erase obligations for earlier work.

Coordinate the permit, work zone and City pavement repair

Apply for the ROW Excavation Permit through the City's Accela route. Public Works says a ROW inspector meets onsite before the permit is issued. Submit the executed bond as the City directs and obtain actual authorization before starting; purchase alone is not a permit.

Omaha's repair guidance says Public Works replaces removed pavement and the excavator pays the repair cost, with limited exceptions under the City process. Confirm the assigned restoration work with Public Works rather than assuming the bond lets your crew perform every final pavement repair.

Excavation affecting vehicles or pedestrians also needs Road Work Zone Authorization unless another approved permit covers that need. Setup must wait for approval. Keep permit-year security and the bond's final-inspection-based maintenance obligation distinct from those traffic-control approvals.
