What this bond does
The Jefferson/Talmo packet concerns land-disturbance permitting and erosion/sedimentation plans. It lists security of $3,000 per disturbed acre. Because the packet is dated January 2019, confirm the current calculation and accepted bond form for your Jefferson project.
- Who needs it
- The applicant or other principal named in the Jefferson land-disturbance security request. The packet records applicant and property owner separately; do not assume that either name can be substituted without checking the form.
- Who it protects
- Keep the land-disturbance request distinct from general contractor licensing and a separate development security requirement. The packet coordinates land-disturbance and development-plan review where applicable, but does not reproduce the bond's complete secured undertaking or release terms.

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.
Sources
Have these ready
- Have the Jefferson project name, parcel, address and disturbed acreage.
- Keep the applicant and property owner identities separately available.
- Collect the current bond form, recipient, calculation and required dates.
- Identify the permit stage and retain plan/NOI references without assuming separate securities are interchangeable.
Questions about this bond
Must the bond accompany the first permit application?
The reviewed 2019 packet expressly puts it before permit issuance, not at initial application. Follow the city's current deadline for the actual project; do not treat the old packet as a universal timing guarantee.
Is the plan-review District automatically the obligee?
No. Reviewing erosion plans is different from receiving bond security. Obtain the recipient wording from the city's current bond request.
How do I start the surety application?
Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Check the legal principal, city recipient, project, current form, sum and dates. Execution and filing follow issuance, and the city separately decides the permit.
