The Northfield Woods Sanitary District requires a plumbing or sewer contractor to file a $10,000 surety bond as part of its SF-340 Contractors License before performing sewer or plumbing connection work in the District. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see at checkout is the price you pay. The application collects no credit information.
















A sanitary district permit bond is among the simplest bonds we issue. Here is the whole process:
Business details and an effective date — that is the application. No financials, no credit section on this bond’s form.
Permit 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 the SF-340 Contractors License packet at the Northfield Woods Sanitary District Permits Office. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
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.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn’t have one.
