What this bond does
This is license-based security for the Special Contractor work described in Denver's form, rather than a general license for every kind of private building construction.
- Who needs it
- Contractors whose City and County of Denver instructions call for the Special Contractor license bond for work in the public right-of-way or other public property.
- Who it protects
- The form secures compliance with the covered work rules and protects the city against specified claims, defaults and maintenance/repair costs. It is not proof that a separate project's performance or payment security has been supplied.

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
Is this a general bond for every Denver builder?
No such blanket scope is established by the cited form. It identifies Special Contractor work in public streets, alleys and other public property and describes particular activities.
Does the certified-mail clause tell me how to file a new bond?
No. That clause addresses cancellation notice by the surety. Ask for the city's current instructions for initial bond delivery.
What execution attachment does the form identify?
It calls for the attorney-in-fact's authority from the surety, certified to include the bond date. Check that with the issued document before completing the city file.
