What this bond does

- Who needs it
- Contractors applying for Trotwood ROW/excavation permission. The published packet gives owners/private citizens a different waiver-and-deposit route; confirm eligibility with Public Works rather than buying contractor security automatically.
- Who it protects
- The sample bond names the City of Trotwood as obligee and addresses lawful opening, pavement restoration, debris removal and repair of damage or defects from inferior workmanship or materials within one year.

Questions about this bond
Is $1,000 sufficient for every project?
Do not assume so. The packet also refers to each opening and the total project value. Have Public Works confirm your required sum.
Does an owner doing the work use the same route?
The packet describes a liability waiver and deposit for owners/private citizens, subject to the city's applicable conditions. Confirm that route before applying for a contractor bond.
Does the bond allow a water or sewer connection?
No. The packet identifies separate tap-in permission, and the ROW permit itself must be approved before work starts.
