About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Before you demolish a structure within the City of Kokomo, Indiana, the city requires a demolition permit and a surety bond. The bond is a performance-and-restoration guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to demolish safely, properly cap and disconnect utilities, remove debris, and restore the site to the city’s standard.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Kokomo (the obligee). If a demolition is abandoned, leaves an unsafe site, or damages adjacent public property and is not corrected, the city can recover against the bond to finish or fix the work.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who demolish cleanly, cap utilities, and close out their permits treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

City of Kokomo, IN — demolition permitThe City of Kokomo, Indiana requires this bond as a condition of its demolition permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the city department that administers building and demolition permitting (typically Building / Code Enforcement).

After you buy

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.

How to file it

File with the city. Submit the executed bond with your City of Kokomo demolition permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the city insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $30,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.

Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Kokomo set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with your permit.
