What this bond does

Match this offering to a Town-requested encroachment instrument after the location, activity and permission have been identified.

Who needs it
Property owners, applicants or contractors whose Surf City encroachment instructions call for a bond. Describe the installation or occupation and distinguish Town right-of-way from any NCDOT-controlled location.
Who it protects
The accepted form determines the bond's recipient, covered duties and enforcement. Surf City's right-of-way policy establishes obstruction and approval concerns but does not establish this offering's bond sum or term.

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.

Confirm whether the encroachment can be approved

The Town's published right-of-way policy addresses buildings, fences, walls, landscaping and other obstructions. It says approved encroachments will be documented and directs owners who believe they have an acceptable encroachment to Code Enforcement to request an agreement.

That policy is not a blanket permission to install structures in the street area. Explain the actual property and proposed use to the Town; if the road is NCDOT-controlled, obtain that authority's instructions too. The policy also identifies separate stormwater permission for new driveways.

Obtain the security form before applying

Ask the requesting office for the accepted bond wording, legal recipient, principal, amount, work scope and dates. The right-of-way policy reviewed does not verify the exact instrument supplied by this offering or establish that every encroachment needs the same bond.

Once the provider confirms the match, continue through the existing Propeller application. Check and file the issued bond as directed, obtain the applicable agreement and permits, and arrange any required inspections and release. Issuance does not resolve a violation notice or give permission to leave an unapproved obstruction in place.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Identify the property, right-of-way limits and proposed or existing encroachment.

  3. Obtain the actual bond request, form, recipient, sum and dates.
  4. Arrange separate agreement/permit approvals, filing and closeout directions.

Questions about this bond

Will buying this bond let an existing obstruction remain?

No. The Town's policy calls for documented approval and directs owners to Code Enforcement regarding an encroachment agreement. A bond does not grant that approval.

Is a new driveway cleared by this bond alone?

No. The published policy identifies separate stormwater permission for new driveways. Confirm all Town and any NCDOT requirements for the location.

What amount and term apply to this offering?

Those details are not established by the policy reviewed or the current option data. Obtain the requesting office's form and written instructions before applying.
