About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Hoover landscape buffer bond guarantees

When a development in Hoover is approved, the City of Hoover’s zoning and landscaping rules often require landscape buffers — screening plantings between uses or along boundaries. When the plantings can’t be completed before occupancy, the city accepts a bond guaranteeing they’ll be installed and established.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Hoover (the obligee). The bond guarantees the required buffer is installed per the approved plan and survives the establishment period. If it isn’t, the city can recover against the bond to complete it.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. The amount is set by the City of Hoover from your landscaping estimate; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
