- Who needs it
- Contractors/subcontractors performing permit work under the County registration program and matching their actual trades to the County application.
- Who it protects
- The County describes its program as protecting public health, safety and welfare and requires security bound to it. The accepted instrument defines claims conditions; it is separate from the listed liability and workers' compensation coverage.

Questions about this bond
Is this the same recipient as a City registration?
The County program requires security bound to Kankakee County for its unincorporated-area permit work. Match the authority on your actual request.
Does the No Employee Affidavit replace $10,000 surety?
The County identifies it with workers' compensation. It separately requires an original signed License and Permit Bond on file.
Can I copy the registration expiry into the bond?
The application tracks document expirations separately. Use the actual accepted security dates; a one-year registration description does not establish this provider option's duration.
