Mokena liquor license bonds.
$225 flat.

The Village of Mokena, a Will County community whose Village President sits as its Local Liquor Control Commissioner, requires a liquor licensee to file a $20,000 surety bond before the Village will issue a local liquor license. Ours is $225 flat — the price you see is the checkout price. The application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft credit pull only — it never affects your score.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Mokena's Village President serves as the community's Local Liquor Control Commissioner, charged with administering the Illinois Liquor Control Act at the village level. Before the Village issues a local liquor license, it conditions that license on the applicant first posting a $20,000 surety bond with the Village.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Mokena (the obligee), with the Village and harmed third parties as the protected parties. If a licensed retailer's conduct breaches the conditions the license and its bond are meant to guard against, a harmed party can recover against the bond up to the $20,000 penal sum.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Keep the bond active for as long as you hold the local license; we track the term and send renewal notices well ahead of expiration so your license doesn't lapse for lack of a bond on file.

Village of Mokena — Local Liquor Control CommissionerMokena administers liquor licensing at the village level, with the Village President acting as Local Liquor Control Commissioner under the framework of the Illinois Liquor Control Act. We could not independently verify a citable municipal-code section number specifying this $20,000 bond figure from a publicly fetchable source, so confirm the current bond amount and licensing class directly with Mokena Village Hall before you apply.
