What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Country Club Hills licenses building contractors under Chapter 13, Article 14 of its Code of Ordinances. Section 13.14.04, "Bond Required," conditions the license on a $10,000 surety bond that runs to the City and is conditioned to keep and save the City harmless from damage to pavements, sidewalks, or other public property resulting from the contractor's use of City streets, and from claims arising from obstructions or materials the contractor leaves on public ways.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Country Club Hills (the obligee), with the City and the public as the protected parties. The City's Building Commissioner administers the license and inspects contractor activity under Article 14.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for the license period, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out to keep your filing continuous.

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 $10,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
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. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Country Club Hills contractor license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
