Brandon, MS — Contractor's License Bond
Brandon calls for a $5,000 bond payable to the City with contractor registration. Its checklist calls this a performance bond, but describes the condition as compliance with City ordinances/regulations and State statutes, not a separate guarantee for a named construction contract.

- Who needs it
- Contractors registering the applicable trades and identifying the company, license holder and people authorized to pull permits.

Questions about this bond
Why does the City call this a performance bond?
Its registration checklist uses that name and describes compliance with City ordinances/regulations and State statutes. Match that obligation, not just a generic project-bond title.
Is an authorized permit signer automatically the bond principal?
No. The application separates company/license-holder identity from additional people authorized to pull permits.
Does annual registration establish a one-year provider term?
No. Confirm the actual accepted bond dates separately from the City's registration cycle.
