Paving Bond Form Information – Dallas, TX

Paving Bond Form Information is the City of Dallas information sheet that tells applicants how to prepare a paving bond: which bond form is accepted, what seal or letter must appear on it, and which paving standards the work must follow.

The sheet is issued under the Planning & Development Department, 320 E Jefferson Blvd, Dallas TX 75203, and carries the date 3/25/2025. It does not ask for the applicant's personal details. It sets seven points:

• The paving bond attachment form must be returned with your bond.
• The only form the city accepts is an official City of Dallas paving bond form.
• The bond must carry a bonding or insurance company seal, or a power of attorney letter. A notary seal is not acceptable.
• The name and address of the resident agent of the surety are required.
• All paving work must comply with Public Works paving details 251d-1.
• The book of paving details is available from the Public Works Department and online.
• Line and grade information is available at 214-670-4491.

The sheet also warns that staff cannot accept incomplete applications or illegible plan review documents. It is a checklist for the bond, not the bond itself.

The sheet is for anyone who must submit a paving bond to the City of Dallas with an application, and for the surety or insurance company and agent who prepare that bond. It does not say which projects require a bond, so confirm that with the department at (214) 948-4480.

What the sheet asks of that group:

• Use an official City of Dallas paving bond form. No other form is accepted.
• Return the paving bond attachment form together with the bond.
• Have the bond sealed by the bonding or insurance company, or accompanied by a power of attorney letter. A notary seal does not count.
• Provide the name and address of the surety's resident agent.

Contractors and designers doing the paving work should also note that all work must comply with Public Works paving details 251d-1. The sheet names no one else who may sign or file on the applicant's behalf.

The paving bond attachment form is returned together with your bond, so it goes in whenever the bond is submitted. No separate due date is printed on the sheet. Line and grade information, which the sheet points to at 214-670-4491, is a resource to consult while preparing the paving work. The sheet says staff cannot accept incomplete applications or illegible plan review documents, so have every item on the sheet in order before you turn the package in.

The sheet names no submission channel of its own; it says the paving bond attachment form must be returned with your bond. Its letterhead gives the contact details of the issuing department:

• Address: Planning & Development Department, 320 E Jefferson Blvd, Dallas TX 75203.
• Phone: (214) 948-4480.
• Line and grade information: 214-670-4491.

Before sending, check that the bond is on an official City of Dallas paving bond form, bears a bonding or insurance company seal or a power of attorney letter (not a notary seal), and names the surety's resident agent and address. The paving details book is available from the Public Works Department and online. Ask the department by phone which channel applies to your application.
