What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Clive licenses solicitors and mobile food unit operators — door-to-door sellers and food trucks / carts working in the city — and conditions that license on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer-and-public-protection guarantee standing behind your honest dealing and compliance with the city's ordinance.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Clive (the obligee). If a solicitor defrauds a resident or a food unit operator violates the ordinance and someone is harmed, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Operators who deal honestly and follow the ordinance treat the bond as a license formality. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your filing stays continuous.
