What it is and who needs it.
What the utility deposit bond actually does
The City of Cartersville operates its own electric utility. Rather than collect a large cash security deposit before turning on service, the city lets a customer post a surety bond instead — the bond guarantees the city will be paid if the account goes unpaid.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Cartersville (the obligee). The bond stands behind your electric bills up to the bond amount — which equals the deposit the city would otherwise hold in cash.
It frees up your capital: you pay the 3% premium instead of locking the full deposit in the city's hands. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city for an unpaid balance, you repay the surety. We issue the city's amount at a flat 3% with no credit check.
