What this bond does

Support the applicant's contractor registration with the Middleburg Heights Building Department under Chapter 743.

Who needs it
Contractors identifying the owner, legal company and actual contractor type for City registration before a work permit is issued.
Who it protects
The linked ordinance describes Building Code compliance, correction or abatement after the principal's failure, and indemnification of the City and others for specified negligence or improper work. The form is subject to City legal approval; this is separate from 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.

Confirm the dates and send tax material separately

The registration page describes a year from registration, while the 2026 application says twelve months from issuance, not calendar year. Confirm the exact dates for your request with the Building Department. Have the company, owner, contractor type, experience and other-municipality registrations ready.

The application lists separate liability evidence with the City additional insured and certificate holder, workers' compensation where required and the specified State trade credentials. RITA registration is also required, but its forms go directly to RITA and must not be included with this City application.

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Match the accepted form, City recipient, principal, contractor type, $25,000 and confirmed dates. After issuance, check the signed original. The application mentions in-person/mail and MyGov submission; ask how the original bond must be delivered rather than treating an online account as a waiver. The return-by-email choice concerns the registration/receipt.

Questions about this bond

Does the City have its own bond blank?

Its registration page says it does not supply a bond form. The linked ordinance still requires a form approved as to form by the Director of Law.

Should my bond end December 31?

The application expressly says twelve months from issuance, not calendar year, while the page describes a year from registration. Confirm your exact dates before execution.

Do RITA forms belong in the City package?

No. The 2026 application says submit them directly to RITA and do not include them with the City application.
