What this bond does

Meet Ogden's messenger or special delivery licensing bond requirement under sections 5-8A-2 and 5-1A-25(C), using a condition accepted by the City Attorney.

Who needs it
The business applying for an Ogden messenger or special delivery service license. Describe the actual service so the City can confirm the appropriate license; moving vans, waste hauling and towing have separate code articles.
Who it protects
The $1,000 bond is in favor of Ogden City, conditioned on observance of all City ordinances and payment of damages arising from negligence in conducting the business. Section 5-1A-25 gives all aggrieved persons a right of action against the licensee and sureties.

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.

Details for the delivery license and negligence condition

Section 5-8A-2 requires the bond to accompany every messenger or special delivery license application and incorporates the general bond provisions. Section 5-1A-25(C) supplies the specific ordinance-compliance and negligence-damage condition. Do not replace that condition with a different business's licensing bond just because it also names Ogden City.

The general section requires filing and City Attorney approval before a license is issued. Its right of action for all aggrieved persons matters when matching the form. A contractor sample with a different sum, license class or claimant limitation does not establish the accepted condition for this delivery license.

Maintain the bond in full force throughout the actual license period and arrange any required renewal or replacement before it lapses. Neither section establishes a universal one-year bond term or a particular surety cancellation notice period. Match those details to the City's accepted undertaking and current license dates.

Keep the legal licensee name, delivery-service description, approved condition and issued evidence together. A vehicle title undertaking or a different hauling license does not satisfy this specific application merely because the business uses a vehicle.

Sources

  1. Confirm the actual messenger or special delivery service and Ogden license classification.
  2. Match the legal license applicant and Ogden City as the requesting authority.
  3. Use the $1,000 sum and the ordinance-compliance/negligence condition with the applicable right of action.

  5. Coordinate license dates, continuation or replacement, and avoid any lapse.

Questions about this bond

Is the City the only party that can bring an action?

Section 5-1A-25 gives all aggrieved persons a right to bring an action against the licensee and sureties under the bond. Match that provision as well as the specific negligence-damage condition; do not assume an unrelated obligee-only sample is suitable.

What happens if the bond lapses during the license period?

Section 5-8A-2 says failure to maintain the bond in full force and effect automatically invalidates the license. Coordinate accepted replacement or continuation before the existing security ends; buying a replacement does not itself establish that the City has restored permission to operate.
