Questions about this bond
Should I replace the Governor with Pasco County as obligee?
Do not change the accepted form on that assumption. The posted form names the Governor of Florida and successors in office, while Contractor Licensing handles the county file. Confirm current wording and delivery instructions with the county.
What if the license holder is not a corporate officer?
Where the principal does business as a corporation and is not its president, vice-president or secretary, the posted form calls for one of those officers to sign or for the principal to show authority to bind the corporation.
Does the one-year defective-work provision mean the bond runs a year from purchase?
No. The work provision and the October 1 expiration field address different things. Have the county's accepted dates ready before issuance; the purchase option does not publish a term here.
