§ 3-6-49. Surety bond.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    Prior to issuing a permit where the work under the permit will require restoration of public rights-of-way, the county may require a surety bond to secure proper performance under the requirements of any permits and the restoration of the public rights-of-way. Twelve (12) months after the completion of the restoration in public rights-of-way in accordance with the bond, the registrant may eliminate the bond. The county, however, may subsequently require a new bond for any subsequent work in the public rights-of-way. The surety bond shall be issued by a surety having a rating reasonably acceptable to the county; shall be subject to the approval of the county attorney; and shall provide that: "For twelve (12) months after issuance of this bond, this bond may not be cancelled, or allowed to lapse, until sixty (60) days after receipt by the county, by certified mail, return receipt requested, of a written notice from the issuer of the bond of intent to cancel or not to renew."

    (b)

    The rights reserved by the county with respect to any surety bond established pursuant to this section are in addition to all other rights and remedies the county may have under this division, or at law or equity.

    (c)

    the rights reserved to the county under this section are in addition to all other rights of the county, whether reserved in this division, or authorized by other law, and no action, proceeding or exercise of a right with respect to the surety bond will affect any other right the county may have.
