What this bond does

City of Shawnee, Kansas general-contractor ROW performance and maintenance security for covered permits and restoration.

Who needs it
The City's legal general-contractor/principal, with utility-company or utility-contractor work referred for the correct separate security.
Who it protects
The form secures timely restoration, debris control and covered damaged public/private improvements to the City as beneficiary. It does not establish private subcontractor payment coverage or unlimited project performance.

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.

Select the role and actual work permissions

The current ROW programme page links the $5,000 annual form for general contractors, including driveway contractors, and a separate $50,000 form for utility companies and their contractors. Do not apply the smaller amount to utility work just because the company also performs general construction.

The page identifies utility, roadway-excavation and driveway permit requests and encourages its Citizenserve process. Prepare the applicable yearly business licence, separate insurance, scaled construction drawings and emergency response plan. Lane closures or equipment on the roadway require traffic control; street closures can need separate detour approval and escrow/letter-of-credit guarantees.

Check ten-project documents and written acceptance

The linked $5,000 form covers obligations for one year from its effective date and Required Restoration for two years from the Engineer's written acceptance. It requires a new separate surety document for every ten projects and prior written City consent for cancellation. An annual anniversary or completing the driveway is not automatic release.

Purchase Now opens Propeller; the option displays no fixed amount or term. Match the City form, legal principal/recipient, covered permits, aggregate amount and dates with the issuer. The form requires execution/seals, attorney-in-fact authority covering the bond date and a Treasury-listed, Kansas-authorized surety; obtain accepted filing rather than assuming the provider link certifies these requirements.

The current page asks applicants to allow 48 hours for the permit process and 24-hour notice for inspections. Obtain the issued work permission, required locates and inspection schedule, then keep written restoration acceptance and continuation/release records. Separate emergency utility procedures do not authorize ordinary general-contractor work.

Questions about this bond

Can a utility contractor use the general-contractor form?

The current programme separates $50,000 utility-company/utility-contractor security from the $5,000 general-contractor category. Have the City assign the actual role and form.

Does one annual document cover any number of projects?

The $5,000 form calls for a new separate surety document for every ten projects. Confirm coverage before adding work.

Can I cancel after the annual period or job finish?

The form requires prior written City consent for cancellation and continued Required Restoration coverage measured from written Engineer acceptance. Obtain actual continuation/release direction.
