What this bond does

Secure the named contractor occupation's compliance and penalties under the City of Moline license-and-permit form.

Who needs it
Applicants asked to provide Moline's contractor license-and-permit bond for their specified business or occupation.
Who it protects
The form binds the principal and surety to the City of Moline for $5,000. Its conditions concern applicable business rules, ordinances and penalties, rather than guaranteeing performance of a customer's construction contract.

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.

Name the occupation on the City's form

The City form includes a blank for the licensed business or occupation, with General, Mechanical and Electrical Contractor as examples. Use the occupation the City is registering; a broad description of your company does not resolve the correct license category.

For general-contractor registration, Moline expressly requires its bond form, original seal and signatures on the first page, and an attached power of attorney. These are checks for the issued document, not documents you must obtain before starting the provider application.

Check the continuing bond before submitting it

The bond is continuing until cancellation. The surety's right to cancel future liability requires 60 days' written notice to the City; that notice period is not a purchase term. General-contractor registration separately follows the calendar year.

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. After issuance, verify the legal principal, City recipient, $5,000 sum and correct occupation. Complete the required execution and submit the bond to the Building Division with the separate registration documents.

Questions about this bond

Can the occupation be left as a general business description?

The City form identifies the occupation being licensed. Moline's general-contractor checklist specifically says to enter General Contractor for that registration. Use the occupation that matches your own City application.

Does annual registration mean a fixed one-year bond?

Moline's form is continuing until cancellation and provides for 60 days' written notice by the surety for future liability. The general-contractor calendar-year registration is a separate schedule.

Does the no-employee statement remove the bond requirement?

No. In the general-contractor checklist, that statement is an alternative for workers' compensation documentation when there are no employees. The $5,000 City-form bond is listed separately.
