About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Canton landscape bond covers

Site-plan approvals in the City of Canton typically require landscaping — street trees, buffers, and plantings — as a condition of development. When the work is installed but hasn’t had time to take root, a landscape establishment bond lets you close out the project while guaranteeing the plants survive.

The bond is a performance guarantee to the City: it backs the survival and replacement of required landscaping through its establishment period (commonly one to two growing seasons). If plants die or were never installed to the approved plan, the City can draw on the bond to complete or replace them.

It is not insurance for you — if the City recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Developers whose landscaping takes and passes the City’s final inspection get the bond released. Enter the City-set amount and your exact price appears at application, from $100.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Canton landscape establishment bond?Pricing is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — set by the amount, not a credit tier. The amount is set by the City of Canton — usually a percentage of your installed landscaping cost. Enter that figure at the application to see your exact price.
Why does the City require it?So required landscaping actually survives. It lets you finish the project and get occupancy while guaranteeing the City that the trees and plants establish — and gives the City a way to replace them if they don’t.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. If a check does run, it’s a soft pull that won’t touch your score.
When is the bond released?At the end of the establishment period (commonly one to two growing seasons) once the City of Canton inspects and confirms the landscaping survived. Until then the bond stays active.
What amount should I enter?Use the figure on your City of Canton approval or development agreement. If it isn’t set yet, send us the landscape estimate and we’ll confirm before issuing.
