Kankakee County, IL — Contractor License Bond

Kankakee County requires an original signed $10,000 License and Permit Surety Bond for its applicable registration. The program covers work involving a building permit in unincorporated County territory, not automatically the separate City's registration.

What this bond does

Prepare County-bound security for contractor registration before an unincorporated-area building permit.

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.

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.

Confirm County territory and keep document dates separate

The current page places this program in unincorporated Kankakee County and requires registration before permit issuance. Match the actual authority; a City of Kankakee request should not simply receive a County-bound instrument.

The application separates registration, liability, workers' compensation and surety expirations. Use the actual security dates rather than copying an insurance or registration date into the bond.

The no-employee affidavit does not replace the signed original

The County requires the original signed $10,000 on file to complete registration. Its No Employee Affidavit is an alternative for the workers' compensation requirement, not a surety waiver. Insurance cancellation-notice wording is also in the insurance instructions, not a stated bond clause.

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Have the accepted form, legal company, County recipient and actual dates ready, then inspect issued details/execution before Planning Department delivery. The application signature of an authorized agent is not a substitute for execution of the issued instrument, and this option displays no duration.

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.
