The City of Lafayette's Engineering & Public Works Department, Permits & Licensing division, conditions the issuance of building, sign, demolition, remodel, and grease-trap, sewer, and water-tap permits on a $5,000 contractor bond under the city's published bond policy. Electrical- and plumbing-only permits carry a separate $1,000 bond; sewer and water taps require $5,000 for those trades too. We do not have a codified ordinance section number for this requirement and frame it here by the department that administers it.
