What this bond does
Helps a county utility applicant match the actual ROW permit-security request to this standalone utility offering.
- Who needs it
- Applicants and utility contractors arranging security for construction in Snohomish County road ROW.
- Who it protects
- The county's accepted form defines the undertaking. Its ROW guidance describes possible construction, restoration and installed-facility security, but this offering's exact current instrument remains factual-check-pending.

Questions about this bond
Is this the combined drainage/utility offering?
No. That is separately listed. Ask PDS which security instrument or instruments the actual project requires.
Does a utility franchise replace the construction permit?
The county treats franchise agreements and utility construction permitting as distinct processes. Confirm all approvals applicable to the installation.
What amount and term does this option supply?
No verified amount or duration is recorded. Obtain PDS's actual form and security request before applying.
Does the pavement restriction set the bond period?
No. The D8 guidance's pavement restrictions concern construction review and deviations, not this bond's effective period.
