What this bond does

- Who needs it

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
Does December 31 cancel the bond?
That is registration's expiry date. The form separately requests continuous surety and at least 30 days' notice to the City Clerk before cancellation.
Does the General Contractor's registration register every subcontractor?
The form's acknowledgement separately requires subcontractor registration. Check the actual applicant rather than relying on another firm's status.
Does purchase let me obtain the permit immediately?
The form says required paperwork must be received and current before permits. Issuance, execution and City submission remain separate from provider purchase.
