About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Homewood conditions land-disturbing work — clearing, grading, earthwork, and soil-erosion control — on a permit and a surety bond. The bond backs your compliance with the City's land-disturbance and erosion-control rules, including site stabilization and restoration.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Homewood (the obligee). If you fail to control erosion, damage City infrastructure, or leave a site unrestored, the City can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Because the City sets the figure with the permit, enter that amount. The application collects no credit information; premiums start at $100, and your exact price appears there.
