Questions about this bond
Is the requirement always $10,000?
No. The published rule uses the greater of $10,000 or $10 multiplied by each $1,000 of proposed construction value. Confirm your required sum with the Village.
Does December 31 automatically release the bond?
That is the license-expiration date. The security provision separately requires Building Commissioner approval for release under its stated conditions.
Is a reissuance bond necessarily the same request?
The chapter has a separate provision for a prescribed bond following non-renewal or reissuance. Ask which obligation the Village is requesting before applying.
