Riviera Utilities, the City of Foley's municipal utility, can require a security deposit before turning on service. A deposit bond lets you post a surety bond instead of tying up cash — the utility sets the amount, and we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
















No underwriting queue for the standard utility deposit bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the utility. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the deposit amount the utility set, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to Riviera Utilities in place of your cash deposit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the utility insists.
Deposit amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure the utility set and the premium updates.
A utility deposit bond is a payment guarantee to the utility. Riviera Utilities, the City of Foley's municipal utility, can ask for a security deposit before turning on service — this bond lets you satisfy that with a surety bond instead of cash you'd otherwise park with the utility.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Riviera Utilities / City of Foley (the obligee). If you leave an unpaid utility balance, the utility can recover against the bond up to its amount.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the utility, you repay the surety. Pay your bills and the bond simply sits there satisfying the deposit requirement and keeping your working capital free.
Submit the application with the deposit amount Riviera Utilities set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
