What this bond does
Provide the City of Raleigh with the contractor security associated with eligibility to work around its public streets, alongside the applicable right-of-way permit process.
- Who needs it
- Contractors arranging Raleigh street or right-of-way work for which the City requests its public-streets contractor bond.
- Who it protects
- The City form secures the principal's performance of the work's undertakings, conditions and ordinance duties. It is expressly not the City's infrastructure or stormwater surety form.

Questions about this bond
Is this Raleigh's infrastructure or stormwater bond?
No. The public-streets contractor form explicitly excludes those uses. Obtain the form named in your City's request rather than relying on the broader right-of-way title.
Why are there two purchase entries?
The catalog offers a Propeller Work in Public Streets entry and an RLI Public Streets/Right of Way entry. Compare the intended City form, principal, sum and dates with the provider before selecting; the labels alone do not establish identical terms.
Is $5,000 the amount for every job?
Raleigh publishes a $5,000 minimum. Ask the City to confirm the required sum for your work before issuance.
Does the bond renew automatically?
The City form allows extension by a surety-signed continuation certificate filed yearly and received before the stated termination date. Do not assume that extending a permit also extends the bond.
