Cheyenne Building Moving Permit Bond
What it is & who requires it
Anyone moving a building or structure into or within the City of Cheyenne. Written application goes to the building official, with the building type and size, its current and destination locations, the moving route, written assurance of compliance and proof of adequate machinery and equipment. Two securities are required together, and proof of comprehensive general liability insurance at the city’s stated limits alongside them. The building may not be occupied while in transit and may not deviate from the designated route without approval, and any damage to streets, curbs and drainage structures is reimbursed to the city on top of the securities.
Obligee: City of Cheyenne (Building Official). Citation: Cheyenne City Code Title 15 (Buildings and Construction — moving buildings and structures); 2001 In-house code § 10-10(a); Ord. 3621 § 12, 2005.

Term & renewal
Term: Held to ensure compliance with the building title and completion of the entire moving project, including clean-up of the vacated premises within the timeframes the city sets.
Renewal: Filed per move. If a building is moved as two or more units, a separate permit and fee applies to each unit.
Filing
Filed with the Cheyenne building official with your moving permit application, along with proof of comprehensive general liability insurance at the city’s limits and the permit fee. Two things keep a figure off this page. The first security the code requires is a cash performance bond by name, deposited with the building official — cash, not a surety instrument — and its amount is a range the building official determines case by case rather than a fixed sum. The second is a separate personal and property damage bond required at the same time. Because two instruments are required together and one of them is set within a range, we quote the requirement rather than publish a number. Demolition in Cheyenne carries its own equivalent security. Authority: Cheyenne City Code Title 15.
