What it is and who needs it.
What the Baker building mover bond guarantees
The City of Baker requires a permit before anyone moves a building or house over its streets. As a condition of that permit, Baker requires a fixed $5,000 surety bond.
The bond is a public-property guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to follow the city's moving route, protect streets, signals, trees, and utility lines, and repair any damage your move causes to public or private property.
It is a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Baker (the obligee). It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays for damage you caused, 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 $5,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
