Questions about this bond
Does McCook ask plumbing contractors for the bond?
The linked application says plumbing contractors must submit the other required documentation. That checklist includes the original signed $10,000 surety bond.
Can an insurance certificate replace the surety document?
No. The application lists an original signed bond and an insurance certificate as separate required documents. Their recipient fields should follow their respective instructions.
Does the December 31 license expiration settle the bond term?
The date is stated for the Village license. Match the actual security dates in the accepted bond request; this page does not display a term choice.
