About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Nampa patrol / alarm bond covers

A private patrol or alarm installer bond is a conduct guarantee the City of Nampa requires before it licenses someone to provide private security, patrol services, or alarm installation in the city. The City conditions the license on a surety bond filed with the City.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and the City of Nampa (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If you violate the City’s patrol / alarm ordinance or cause harm in the course of licensed work, a harmed party can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. We track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your Nampa license never lapses over an expired bond.

City of Nampa — Private Patrol / Alarm Installer LicensingThe City of Nampa requires a surety bond as a condition of a private patrol or alarm installer license under its City Code licensing provisions. The bond amount is set by the City and stated on your license packet; confirm the exact figure with the Nampa City Clerk’s office.

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

File with the City. Submit the executed bond with your Nampa private patrol or alarm installer license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

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.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.

Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Nampa set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
