What this bond does
Prepare the combined Tri-City licensing route described in Sterling's registration instructions, without treating it as three interchangeable single-city purchases.
- Who needs it
- Contractors whose actual licensing requests call for the combined Dixon, Sterling and Rock Falls arrangement.
- Who it protects
- Sterling describes the license security as honoring each named city for $15,000. The accepted instrument controls its conditions; do not read the $45,000 total as $45,000 promised to each city or as contractor liability insurance.

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 the published total $45,000 for each city?
No. Sterling's sheet describes $45,000 honoring the three named cities at $15,000 each. The accepted instrument defines the actual allocation and conditions.
Does a Sterling exception settle another city's requirements?
No. Use each actual requesting city's current class and filing instructions; the Sterling sheet does not independently certify Dixon or Rock Falls rules.
Does applying once complete three registrations?
No. RLI application and issuance remain separate from each applicable City registration and continuation submission.
