Elwood, IL — Contractor License Bond

Elwood's registration form says $10,000 surety is issued when a job is scheduled and must be in place before construction or services begin. Its work-period and written-release instructions are different from the annual registration cycle.

What this bond does

Prepare the Village's job-scheduled license/permit indemnity/surety security before the actual work starts.

Who needs it
Elwood contractors and subcontractors with scheduled Village work and the applicable bond request, rather than applicants assuming every registration alone triggers immediate issuance.
Who it protects
The form requires security in favor of Elwood through construction or completion of services and calls for written Village authorization for release. The accepted instrument supplies its full conditions; registration's insurance clauses are separate.

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.

Distinguish registration from a scheduled job

The actual form says the bond only needs to be issued when a job is scheduled and has an if-required attachment field. Confirm the work and accepted request rather than buying only because you are opening or renewing a registration.

Use the full legal operating business name. The form separates that business from point of contact, owners, officers, partners and members; the submitting contact is not automatically the surety principal.

Do not treat April 30 as automatic security release

Licenses expire April 30 regardless of issue date, but the bond instruction describes the work/services period and written Village release. Confirm the actual instrument and dates; neither registration expiry nor finishing work alone should be assumed to complete that written-release step.

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. After issuance, check the $10,000 form, Village recipient and execution, then submit as directed. The Village form allows additional attachments by its stated email or mail route. Its electronic application signature is not proof that a separate bond was executed.

Questions about this bond

Must I issue the bond just to renew registration?

The Village form says it only needs issuance when a job is scheduled and marks the bond attachment if required. Confirm the actual work/request before buying.

Does April 30 automatically release the bond?

The licensing date is separate. The bond instruction calls for security through the work/services period and written Village authorization for release.

Does the online application signature execute the surety?

It signs the Village application. Check the separate issued bond and its actual execution before submitting it as directed.
