The City of Jennings licenses contractors who build, alter, or repair structures inside the city. As a condition of that license, the city requires a surety bond — typically $5,000 — filed with its licensing office.
The bond is a compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your adherence to the city's building and contractor ordinances and protects the city and the public against losses from code violations or unpermitted work.
It is a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Jennings (the obligee). It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull permits and follow code treat it as a license formality.
