What this bond does

Town of Wareham, Massachusetts security required for the identified street-opening permit and public-way restoration.

Who needs it
The contractor or owner applying for the particular Wareham work, with both parties and the actual signer identified on the application.

The accepted security concerns the permitted work and restoration obligations specified by the Town. It is not a substitute for insurance or approval of the whole private development.

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.

Describe the work even when pavement cutting is uncertain

The Town's selected application distinguishes driveway repair/repaving/alteration, gas, drainage, water, underground electric/telecommunications and other work. It asks whether pavement cutting is expected, with Yes, No and Maybe choices. Give Municipal Maintenance the actual scope and site sketch rather than assuming a permit is unnecessary because a cut is uncertain.

Surety name, expiration and amount are blank applicant fields; Waive Bond is an office-use decision. Have the Town identify the required form, responsible principal, Town recipient, sum and coverage. A blank field or waiver box is not evidence that security is optional for your project.

The 20-day permit window is not the bond term

The application says the permit expires 20 days after approval unless otherwise noted. That is the work permit's window, not a supplied 20-day surety term. Confirm the actual start/end dates and any different Town notation before scheduling.

Purchase Now opens Propeller. The option displays no fixed amount or term. Match the assigned instrument with the issuer, arrange execution and accepted Town filing, then obtain the actual Municipal Maintenance approval. The Town's application distinguishes approval, denial and incomplete status.

Follow the start-notice and inspection directions, including inspection before backfilling. Restoration can include disturbed sidewalks, driveway aprons and pavement; use the Town's assigned restoration requirements and referenced right-of-way manual. Ask Municipal Maintenance for the applicable maintenance and release conditions rather than inventing an annual renewal or automatic release.

Questions about this bond

Is Wareham's bond amount fixed on the application?

No. The reviewed application leaves the surety amount and expiration blank. Obtain Municipal Maintenance's requirement for your work.

Does the waiver box let me omit the bond?

No. Waive Bond is in the Town's office-use area. Obtain an express decision rather than selecting a waiver for yourself.

Is the displayed option for 20 days?

No fixed term is displayed. Twenty days is the application's default permit window after approval, unless the Town notes otherwise; it is not a stated bond term.
