Killingworth subdivision bonds.
From $100. Enter your amount.
When the Killingworth Planning and Zoning Commission approves a subdivision, Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-25 lets the applicant guarantee the roads, drainage, and other required public improvements with a surety bond instead of building them before the plan is recorded. Pricing is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, and the application includes a credit consent that authorizes a soft pull only — enter the amount the Commission set and see your exact price in the on-page calculator.

What it is and who needs it.
What the subdivision bond actually guarantees
Connecticut subdivision law, Conn. Gen. Stat. § 8-25, lets a planning commission accept a surety bond, cash bond, or other financial guarantee in place of building a subdivision’s roads, drainage, and utilities before the plan is recorded. The Killingworth Planning and Zoning Commission uses this bond so a developer can record a subdivision and sell lots while still on the hook to finish the required public improvements.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Killingworth (the obligee), with future lot owners as the protected parties. Under the statute, the Commission may require a separate financial guarantee for erosion and sediment controls before any improvement work even begins, and if lots are conveyed and the improvements are not finished within the statutory period, the town can call the bond to finish the work.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays to complete the improvements, you repay the surety. Enter the bond amount the Commission approved for your subdivision; we price it from a $100 minimum with a soft-pull credit consent only.
