What this bond does

The city's Contractors Performance Bond for Land Disturbing Permit requires the principal to perform the duties imposed by the city's applicable ordinances and regulations during the permit. If the project is not completed and the city must correct problems from the disturbed land, the form provides for bond proceeds up to the bond amount toward that remediation.

Who needs it
The principal applying for the identified land disturbing permit from the City of Lynchburg, Virginia.
Who it protects
The City of Lynchburg is the obligee. The form secures the specified project obligation and includes protection of the city against stated losses and claims. It is not an all-project contractor license bond or a replacement for liability insurance.

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.

The named project and city satisfaction matter

The form expressly applies only to the stated project and requires proof of the bond to be presented to the city. It remains in effect until the city is satisfied that the principal has fully performed. A guessed annual term or an applicant's own completion date does not establish release.

Its termination provision describes written notice from the obligee to the principal by Registered or Certified mail at least 30 days before termination, with liability for earlier defaults preserved. Do not recast that as an unrestricted right for the applicant to cancel. Obtain the current city form and required sum before applying; follow the signature and delivery instructions after issuance.

Questions about this bond

Does this bond cover my other land-disturbance jobs?

The published form says it applies only to the stated project. A bond for another site should not be assumed to satisfy this permit, even if the same contractor performs both jobs.

Does completion end the bond automatically?

The form ties the obligation to the city's satisfaction with full performance and has its own termination provisions. Obtain confirmation of the applicable city process rather than assuming physical completion is enough.

What happens after Purchase Now?

The Propeller application opens in a new tab. Review the principal, city, project, form and requested sum. Applying is separate from issuance; once the bond is issued, complete its execution and present it using the city's instructions. Payment alone does not issue a permit.
