When a developer or contractor agrees to build utility infrastructure — water, sewer, electric, gas lines — under an infrastructure agreement with a Georgia utility or municipality, the agreement usually requires a performance bond. The amount is set by the agreement; priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
















No long underwriting queue for the standard infrastructure bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the obligee. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount your agreement requires, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
Smaller amounts often issue on payment; larger infrastructure bonds may get a quick underwriting look first, including a soft credit check that never affects your score.
Submit the executed bond to the utility or municipality named as obligee in your agreement. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
When a developer extends a subdivision or commercial project, the water, sewer, electric, or gas lines often have to be built to a utility’s or municipality’s standards. The developer signs a utility services infrastructure agreement promising to build and complete that infrastructure — and the agreement requires a performance bond as security.
The bond runs to the utility or municipality as obligee, guaranteeing that the developer completes the utility improvements per the agreement and the approved plans. If the developer fails to finish, the obligee can call the bond to fund completion — and if the surety pays, the developer repays the surety.
The bond amount is set by the agreement, usually the engineer’s estimated cost of the utility improvements. There is no single statewide statutory figure — it is a contractual performance bond. Enter the amount your agreement names — pricing runs 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, priced by amount rather than credit tier.
Submit the application with the bond amount your agreement requires. Smaller amounts often issue on payment; larger ones may get a quick underwriting look.
