What it is and who needs it.
What the maintenance bond actually covers
A City of Jeffersonville maintenance permit bond is a warranty guarantee. After you've restored a street cut or completed infrastructure in the right-of-way, the city wants assurance the work stays sound for the warranty period — typically a year or more — not just on the day of final inspection.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Jeffersonville (the obligee). If a patch settles, a joint fails, or restored work deteriorates within the warranty window, the city can fix it and recover the cost against the bond.
We issue the amount the city set; pricing starts from $100. There is a quick soft credit check — it never affects your score, and never becomes a hard inquiry. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.

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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
