What it is and who needs it.
What the land development bond actually covers
Henry County conditions a land development permit on a performance bond guaranteeing that the required site improvements get built. It is a completion guarantee: it backs your obligation to construct the streets, drainage, and utilities in your approved development plans.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Henry County (the obligee). If you fail to complete the improvements, the County can recover against the bond to finish the work — protecting the public and future property owners.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Developers who complete their improvements on schedule treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount the County set, priced at 0.5% of that amount, $100 minimum, with no credit check up to $100,000 on the application.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it

What sets the price
The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
