About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the flood control performance bond guarantees

The Flood Control District of Maricopa County (FCDMC) is the regional authority for flood-control, drainage, and floodplain management across Maricopa County. When you build drainage improvements, flood-control structures, or work within a District floodplain, the District requires a performance bond.

The bond runs between you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Flood Control District of Maricopa County (the obligee). It guarantees you complete the improvement work to the District’s standards and approved plans. If you default, the District can call on the surety to finish or pay the cost of completion, up to the bond amount.

The amount equals the contract or improvement value the District names, so the premium scales with the job. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We write it at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull — the pull informs approval, never the price.
