Beaverton, OR Right of Way Permit Bond
Overview
Beaverton's public right-of-way belongs to everyone — and when contractors or utility workers dig into it, the City of Beaverton requires a financial guarantee that any damage will be repaired. This bond protects the city and its residents from the cost of restoring streets, sidewalks, curbs, and other public infrastructure disturbed during permitted work. Before a right-of-way permit is issued, this bond must be in place. It is a local Beaverton requirement, not an Oregon state license bond.
Who Needs This Bond?
If you are a contractor, utility company, or developer who needs a right-of-way permit from the City of Beaverton to perform work in or under a public street, sidewalk, or city easement, this bond is required. Any excavation, trenching, boring, or surface work that disturbs Beaverton's public right-of-way will trigger the permit — and the permit triggers the bond. Landscapers, telecom crews, plumbers, and general contractors working in the city's public infrastructure corridor all fall into this category.
What is this Bond For?
This bond guarantees that you, as the principal, will restore the right-of-way to city-approved standards after your permitted work is complete. If you fail to repair the disturbance — whether that is a repaved cut, a restored curb, or a replaced sidewalk panel — the City of Beaverton can make a claim against the bond to cover those restoration costs. It is not insurance for your business; it is a financial assurance to the city that the public infrastructure you disturb will be made whole.
When is it Required?
Every new right-of-way permit application with the City of Beaverton requires this bond to be active before the permit is approved and work begins. If your bond lapses or is cancelled mid-project, your permit authorization is at risk and the city may halt your work. Contractors who regularly perform work in Beaverton's right-of-way often keep a continuous bond on file to cover multiple permits throughout the year without interruption.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies exclusively within the City of Beaverton, Oregon, and is a local municipal requirement administered by the city. It covers work performed in any public right-of-way under Beaverton's jurisdiction, including streets, alleys, sidewalks, and city-controlled easements. It does not satisfy permit bonding requirements for neighboring jurisdictions such as Washington County or Hillsboro.
