What this bond does
Distinguish any current City surety request from the additional trade licenses addressed by the 2024 ordinance.
- Who needs it
- Contractors reconciling a Central document request with State trade credentials and the City's changed licensing provisions.
- Who it protects
- The ordinance does not establish an accepted current surety form, sum or covered obligation for this bond. Do not treat an old additional-trade-license requirement, State credential or occupational license as an interchangeable bond request.

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
Did the ordinance eliminate occupational licensing?
No. Ordinance 2024-20 expressly says occupational licenses are unaffected and must continue to be applied for and issued.
Did it identify every construction bond as abolished?
No. It addresses additional City mechanical, plumbing and electrical licenses and specified Title 8 sections. Confirm any distinct current surety request on its own terms.
Can I use another city's bond requirement for Central?
Do not assume equivalence. Obtain Central's current accepted request and match that instrument with the provider before applying.
