Questions about this bond
Is $300,000 the contractor bond amount?
That is the liability-insurance minimum on the posted city sheet, not a surety amount. Use the amount in the city's accepted bond instructions.
Do the $5,000 and $15,000 figures set the bond amount?
No. The sheet uses those figures for Notice of Commencement instructions tied to direct contract value, including its HVAC distinction.
Does a St. Johns County or St. Augustine Beach document settle the city request?
Not by its place name alone. Identify the requesting jurisdiction and ask the city whether an existing instrument is acceptable before treating it as a substitute.
