Country Club Hills requires a building contractor to give the City a $10,000 surety bond under Code of Ordinances § 13.14.04 — ours is $100 flat, and the price you see is the checkout price. The application collects no credit information.
















Municipal contractor bonds are about the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
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.
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.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this application doesn't collect credit information.
