Board Of Garrett County Commissioners, MD — Stormwater Management Bond

For a Garrett County stormwater-security request, start with the approved facility plan and the Stormwater Management Office's instructions. The published ordinance ties security to completing that plan—not simply holding a contractor license.

What this bond does

The county-hosted 2010 ordinance's performance-bond section describes security before building/grading permit issuance for development requiring a stormwater management facility. It addresses completion of the approved stormwater plan, ordinance/applicable-law compliance and time limitations. Confirm the provision's current application to your project with the office.

Who needs it
The developer or designated representative preparing the county's project security. Section 6.1 identifies non-single-family residential, commercial, institutional and public-occupancy development; do not infer a blanket requirement or exemption for every residential project from this listing.
Who it protects
Section 7 describes non-expiring or auto-renewing surety or other security acceptable to the Stormwater Management Office, with a sum not less than the facility's total estimated construction cost. This is project-specific security, not a standard purchase term or proof that any offered form/issuer is accepted. Match the requested legal Board/recipient wording; the reviewing office and Maryland state agency are not automatically interchangeable obligees.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

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.

Keep as-built records and any written partial-release procedure

The published section requires a final office inspection, as-built plans and the office's completion certification before full release. Finishing installation or reaching a checkout anniversary does not satisfy those stated conditions.

Partial release is described for stages completed and accepted by the office, using a procedure specified in writing before stormwater-plan approval. Do not assume a percentage reduction or automatic return after each phase. Obtain the current project instructions and accepted undertaking.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Have the developer/principal's legal identity and actual county security request.
  2. Prepare the approved stormwater facility plan, site/permit details and office-required sum.
  3. Confirm the accepted form/issuer, exact legal recipient, effective dates and continuity requirements.
  4. Keep execution/filing directions, as-built/completion records and any written partial-release procedure.

Questions about this bond

Is this just an erosion-control contractor license bond?

The reviewed section addresses performance of an approved stormwater management facility plan. Match that project obligation rather than substituting general licensing or temporary erosion-control security.

Can I assume a partial reduction when a stage is finished?

No. The published ordinance describes completed/accepted stages under a procedure the office specifies in writing before plan approval. Get the actual project procedure.

How do I start the stormwater-bond application?

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Match the county request, developer/principal, exact accepted recipient/form, facility-based sum and dates. Provider review/issuance, authorized execution and county filing do not replace permit issuance, completion certification or release.
