About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the utility deposit bond actually does

The City of Cartersville operates its own water 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 water 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.
