What this bond does
Prepare the City-named security requested for the actual contractor activity and right-of-way work.
- Who needs it
- Contractors with a Wheaton bond request tied to the trade and work location, including irrigation work in the City right-of-way.
- Who it protects
- The City of Wheaton is the stated obligee. Use its accepted form for the actual activity rather than assuming licensing security also guarantees private-contract completion or payment.

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
Does the page require the bond from every general contractor?
Its current general registration row does not list that surety package. The $10,000 instructions concern the stated right-of-way work.
Can I prepare the surety document myself?
The City says an insurance or bond company must prepare it and self-issued bonds are not accepted.
Is the letter-of-intent notarization automatically a bond rule?
No. That instruction is attached to the letter of intent. Follow the accepted bond form for bond execution.
