The Site Improvement Bond in Akron is used as a method of assurance that contractors will fulfill their obligations in the construction of sidewalks, driveway aprons, or curbs according to the permit and the Akron Municipal Code. Whether the work is for commercial or residential properties, repairing, installing, paving, grading, or otherwise altering the right of way, contractors will need a permit and bond to operate and guarantee their performance.
An active bond is required during construction; if you need to renew your bond, Jet will send you a notice to fill out and return. Once the project is complete and the work has been approved, the bond is no longer required.
