What this bond does

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.

Match the work and level of plan detail

The application calls for a full work description, specific location, CBYD reference, amount, issuer, and exact party receiving the permit. Major encroachments require complete plans and specifications; other work calls for a careful sketch. Obtain Public Services' current required sum and accepted bond form instead of assuming every opening has the same amount.

Confirm delivery and actual permission to proceed

The posted paper application directs signed copies to Public Services and includes a separate Director's permission-to-proceed field. Ask for the current complete permit conditions and delivery channel. No fixed amount or term is displayed here. Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab; check and file the issued security as directed. Filling out an application or buying the bond does not complete that work authorization.
