Check recipient, individual trade form and calendar dates

The City's bond says to check one trade and use a separate bond form for each trade. Its registration page requests its own $25,000 instrument and January 1–December 31 calendar-year dates. Confirm the accepted dates for your actual application rather than assuming a rolling year or independently backdating an issued bond.

For a confirmed City filing, the principal must sign. The City accepts embossed, foil or electronic seals but still requires the original bond, rejects continuation certificates and says not to fax the registration package. An electronic seal is not permission to replace original delivery with an emailed copy.

Purchase Now opens RLI in a new tab. First confirm its form matches the actual recipient and requested trade. After issuance, check execution and required authority attachments, then mail or deliver the completed City package under the current Community Development instructions. The City's checklist separately calls for County registration and County building permits/inspections; one City bond does not complete both authorities' processes.
