The Delaware-Muncie Metropolitan Plan Commission requires commercial contractors to file a fixed $20,000 bond to register and pull permits in Delaware County and the City of Muncie. Ours is $600 flat — 3% of the bond amount, identical for every contractor.
















Contractor license bonds are simple. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check 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 arrives by email, ready to file with your Delaware-Muncie commercial contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$20,000 bond × 3% = $600, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
The Delaware-Muncie Metropolitan Plan Commission administers building and contractor registration for the City of Muncie and Delaware County. It conditions commercial contractor registration on a $20,000 surety bond filed with the Commission before you pull commercial permits.
The bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to build to code, pull the proper permits, and follow the Commission’s building ordinances. If you violate those rules and someone is harmed, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Commercial contractors who pull permits and build to code treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
