Clinton, MI Single Job Right of Way Bond
Overview
Working in Clinton's public right of way on a single project? You need this bond before the city will let you break ground. Clinton's Single Job Right of Way Bond guarantees that any contractor or utility worker who disturbs a city street, sidewalk, or public easement will restore it to proper condition. If the work is left incomplete or the right of way is damaged without repair, the city has a financial remedy through the bond.
Who Needs This Bond?
Contractors installing driveways, utility companies running new service lines, and excavation crews cutting into city streets all need this bond. If your project requires a Clinton right-of-way permit and it touches city-owned property — pavement, curbs, sidewalks, or public easements — this bond is part of the permit process. It covers a single job, not an ongoing license, so it is tied specifically to the scope of your permitted work.
What is this Bond For?
This bond protects the City of Clinton by ensuring the public right of way is restored after construction or utility work is complete. If you leave a trench open, damage a curb, or fail to repave a street cut, the city can make a claim against the bond to fund the repairs. It is not liability insurance — it is a financial guarantee that you will meet your restoration obligations under the city's permit conditions.
When is it Required?
Before Clinton issues a right-of-way permit for your specific project, the city will ask for this bond. That request typically comes during the permit application review, after you have submitted your project details and before approval is granted. You cannot legally begin work in the right of way until the bond is in place and the permit is issued.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond is a local requirement specific to the City of Clinton, Michigan. It applies only to work performed within Clinton's public right of way, including city streets, sidewalks, curbs, and public utility corridors. It is not a statewide bond and does not satisfy permit requirements in any other Michigan municipality.
