The City of Junction City, Kansas requires a $2,000 bond as a condition of its sign contractor license. Ours is $100 flat, set by our carrier's rate book for this bond. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit fields, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Junction City sign contractor license application or renewal. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A Junction City sign contractor bond is a code-and-public-protection guarantee. The City of Junction City licenses the contractors who erect and hang signs inside city limits, and wants a financial backstop that you will follow the city sign code and stand behind work that overhangs public spaces.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Junction City (the obligee), with property owners and the public as the protected parties. If a licensed sign contractor violates the city code or damages public or private property, the city or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your city license. Let it lapse and the city can suspend the license — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $2,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit fields, because this bond's application doesn't collect any.
