What is this bond?

The City of Selma Encroachment Permit Bond is a surety bond required for individuals or businesses performing work within the public right-of-way. It serves as a financial guarantee that the permitted work will be completed properly and city property will be restored to its original condition. If the permittee causes damage or abandons the project, the bond protects the local government from financial loss.

Who needs it?

Contractors, developers, and property owners performing construction or maintenance within the City of Selma's public streets, sidewalks, or easements typically need this bond. It is generally required before the city will issue an official encroachment permit to begin a project. Common examples of covered projects include utility installations, driveway construction, and sewer connections.

Why is it required?

The City of Selma requires this bond to protect public infrastructure and ensure that taxpayers are not burdened with the costs of incomplete or substandard private construction. It provides the city with a financial mechanism to repair roads, sidewalks, or landscaping if a contractor fails to meet the permit's standards. Ultimately, the bond guarantees compliance with local regulations and protects the community's safety.
