What it is and who needs it.
What the land disturbance bond actually covers
When you grade, clear, or disturb soil in Leavenworth, the city wants a financial backstop that you'll control erosion and sediment, keep mud out of the public right-of-way, and restore the site. This bond is that backstop.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Leavenworth (the obligee). If you fail to maintain erosion controls or restore the public right-of-way and the city has to act, Leavenworth can recover against the bond.
The amount is set by the city on your permit, tied to the cost of erosion control and restoration for your project. We issue whatever Leavenworth requires, priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — a quick soft credit check may apply for approval, and it never affects your score. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays, you repay the surety.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
