What this bond does

Helps a city street-opening applicant prepare the requested security, installation details and separate work approval.

Who needs it
Applicants and contractors opening or installing facilities in City of Port Washington, Wisconsin ROW.
Who it protects
The accepted License/Permit Bond defines its undertaking. The city permit separately imposes damage/claim responsibility, guarded openings and permanent restoration of affected public surfaces.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

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.

Prepare the city installation request

The current DPW form identifies the applicant and contractor separately and requests plans/plan number, reason for work, installation method, start date, estimated restoration and contact. Methods include tunneling, jack-and-bore, trenching, open cut and other listed installations.

Use the actual City of Port Washington request. The form's printed property-owner field identifies the city; confirm the affected public location and required legal principal rather than treating that field as the private applicant.

Confirm the $2,000 instrument and permit route

The form expressly requests a $2,000 License/Permit Bond and carrier name. Obtain the accepted bond wording, recipient, legal principal and dates, then confirm the provider form before using the existing Propeller application.

The city's Building Inspection page links this DPW form and offers electronic permit submission. Confirm how the Street Opening request and executed security should reach the responsible office; surety issuance is not City Engineer authorization.

Arrange restoration and required closure permission

The permit requires utility notification, barriers/lights and special written city permission to block a street or walk; granted street closures also require police/fire notification. A driveway closure requires the specified occupant permission.

Damaged roadway/sidewalk must be permanently repaired with like adjacent materials, and granular-backfilled openings must be maintained until permanent pavement. Confirm inspections and actual bond discharge. The form supplies no fixed bond period, cancellation notice or automatic release at the estimated restoration date.
