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.

Questions about this bond
Is $5,000 a universal requirement established by both papers?
No. Their treatment of higher-value residential work and liability alternatives differs. Obtain the instruction for your actual request.
Does a one-year contractor license establish the bond term?
No. Check the accepted surety instrument's actual period.
Does a homeowner permit-fee exception waive all bonding?
Do not assume so. The application distinguishes fee, permit and owner-work exemptions; have the City confirm your actual role and work.
