What it is and who needs it.
What the deposit bond actually covers
Jonesboro City Water & Light (CWL) is the municipal utility for Jonesboro, providing electric, water, and wastewater service. Like most utilities, it asks new or higher-risk accounts for a deposit to secure payment — and it will accept a surety bond in place of tying up that cash.
The bond is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Jonesboro City Water & Light (the obligee). If the account goes unpaid and CWL applies the deposit, it can recover the unpaid balance against the bond instead of holding your cash up front.
The bond amount equals the deposit CWL set for your account — typically based on your expected usage. Confirm the figure on your CWL deposit notice and enter it here — the premium is 2% of that amount, $100 minimum, set by the deposit figure, not a credit or underwriting tier.
