Bellefontaine, OH — Contractor License Bond
Bellefontaine's posted sample registration bond states $10,000 and a December 31 end date. Confirm the current work-specific request before applying: the linked packet mixes a 2026 heading with a 2024 letter, 2025 transition instructions and an extra-zero amount typo.

What this bond does
Identify the current contractor-registration and utility/right-of-way security request without treating inconsistent packet text as a new bond amount.
- Who needs it
- Contractors clarifying whether their work needs the posted annual security and separate permits.
- Who it protects
- The sample names Bellefontaine and protects it and people injured by failure to comply with the applicable licensing rules and Ohio laws. The packet discusses utility/right-of-way and sanitary-sewer bonding changes; its dated transition text does not establish every current contractor's applicability.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Does the posted sample require $100,000?
No. The actual sample states $10,000; an extra-zero typo in the transition letter should not determine the amount.
Does the packet establish current applicability for every contractor?
No. Its mixed years and utility/right-of-way transition discussion require confirmation for the actual work.
Does an annual surety replace permit applications?
The packet says separate permits still must be applied for. Confirm the current requirement.
