What this bond does

City of Prairie Village, Kansas performance and maintenance security for covered permitted ROW restoration.

Who needs it
The required contractor/permit principal, with the self-performing adjacent residential-owner or government exception confirmed.
Who it protects
The accepted City form secures covered ROW provisions and restoration. Separate insurance and the applicant's work duties do not establish unlimited surety protection for a private project.

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.

Check who performs the work and what security applies

The current Public Works page directs ROW applications to OpenGov. Contractors need a location plan, a City contractor licence, a certificate naming Prairie Village as certificate holder and maintenance security. Homeowners performing the work themselves are not required to obtain the certificate or bond; hiring a contractor changes that situation.

The linked insurance/bond requirements specify the greater of $5,000 or restoration value and a City-Attorney-approved form. A $50,000 annual bond automatically renewed during the required period is an alternative. Governmental entities have a separate bond exception; obtain Public Works' classification rather than assigning every applicant a flat $5,000.

File accepted documents and complete the restoration process

Purchase Now opens Propeller; the option displays no fixed amount or term. Match the City's form, legal principal and recipient, assigned sum, covered permits and dates with the issuer. Arrange execution and accepted City Clerk filing with required separate insurance, then obtain issued ROW permission through the current City process.

The public page calls for two-year maintenance; its linked requirement text measures security during the permit plus two additional years. Treat the posted $50,000 annual arrangement as continuing security during that period, not automatic release after one year.

The reminder packet calls for sod to restore grass/lawn and identifies different traffic-working hours for street activity. Follow Public Works' job-specific plans, inspections and restoration details. The page separately lists drainage and tree-plan permits; a ROW bond does not show that all other site approvals are complete.

Questions about this bond

Should a homeowner automatically buy this bond?

The City exempts residential owners doing adjacent ROW work themselves without a contractor. Confirm the actual role and required permit; hiring a contractor changes the security question.

Is every contractor's amount $5,000?

The linked requirements use restoration value if greater and offer a $50,000 annually renewed alternative. Obtain Public Works' assignment.

Does an annual arrangement end all duties after one year?

No. The linked text requires security during the permit and two years afterward, with the annual alternative renewed during that period.
