About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A Lafayette electrical permit bond is a code-compliance guarantee. The city wants a financial backstop that electrical work pulled under a city permit is performed to code and finished as permitted.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lafayette (the obligee). If permitted work violates code or damages public property and you don't make it right, the city can recover against the bond.

The city sets $1,000 for electrical-only permits. The bond must be on file before the permit is issued, so we keep it current and notify you 60 and 30 days out.
