About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A performance bond is a completion guarantee. The City of Emerson wants assurance that the public improvements or permitted work tied to your project get finished to the city's plans and specifications.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Emerson (the obligee). If you fail to complete the work, the city can claim against the bond to finish it, up to the bond amount.

The bond is tied to your contract or development agreement with the city. We size it to whatever Emerson requires and get it filed so your project can move forward.

City of EmersonThe City of Emerson, Georgia requires a performance bond as a condition of approving public improvements or permitted work; the bond amount and terms are set by the city in your contract or development agreement.
