About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of New Haven, Indiana requires a $5,000 surety bond as a condition of a building sewer permit — the permit to connect a building's sewer line to the public system. The bond guarantees the work is done to the City's standards and that City streets, sidewalks, and the public sewer are restored and protected.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of New Haven (the obligee), with the public protected. If the sewer connection is done improperly or City property is damaged and not repaired, the City can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who tap to code and restore the right-of-way treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
