What it is and who needs it.
What the Cañon City contractor bond covers
Cañon City requires contractors to be licensed and bonded with the city before doing work in the rights-of-way and obtaining excavation permits, per Municipal Code Chapter 5.12 (and Chapter 12.12 for the right-of-way work itself).
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Cañon City (the obligee). The bond guarantees your compliance with the city’s contractor and construction requirements and stands behind the work you perform under your city license.
It is not insurance for you — if the city draws on the bond, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the city set — the application collects no credit information, and pricing starts from $100.
