What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Northfield Woods Sanitary District collects sanitary sewage from homes and businesses across its service area — parts of Glenview, Northbrook, and Prospect Heights, Illinois — and conveys it for treatment through the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District. Before a contractor connects to, repairs, or otherwise performs plumbing or sewer work on that system, the District’s Permits Office requires a completed SF-340 Contractors License application, which conditions the license on license fees, a performance bond, and an insurance certificate — this bond is that performance bond, set at $10,000.
It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Northfield Woods Sanitary District (the obligee). The bond guarantees you’ll perform permitted sewer and plumbing work in compliance with the District’s permit conditions — so the District isn’t left absorbing the cost of connection work left unfinished or done out of spec.
It is not insurance for you. If the District makes a valid claim and the surety pays, you repay the surety. Contractors who close out their permits cleanly treat the bond as a filing formality, not a risk.

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 District. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the SF-340 Contractors License packet at the Northfield Woods Sanitary District Permits Office. 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.
