Questions about this bond
Does the applicant's entity type matter?
Yes. Virginia Beach publishes separate corporation, individual and partnership ROW forms with different execution blocks. Ask the city for accepted instructions for the actual legal entity.
Can I use a general corporation bond from the same directory?
Do not assume so. The directory separately identifies ROW permit, general, subdivision and stormwater instruments. Match the requested permit undertaking.
Is a fixed annual term established by these forms?
No universal annual term or cancellation interval is stated in the reviewed ROW forms. Confirm the actual coverage and release instructions with the city.
Does the bond authorize a utility street cut?
No. The city's ROW process separately addresses utility plans and open-cut/test-hole requests. Obtain the permit and required approvals before work.
