About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the performance bond actually guarantees

Queen Anne's County conditions development and subdivision approvals on the public improvements being built — roads, water mains, sewer, stormwater. The Commissioners of Queen Anne's County, through the Department of Public Works, require a performance bond standing behind that work.

The bond is a performance guarantee: it backs the improvements being completed to the County's standards and specifications on the schedule the agreement sets. Queen Anne's County (the obligee) can draw on the bond to complete the improvements with another contractor if you stop or fail.

It is not insurance for you. If the County draws on the bond and the surety pays, you repay the surety. The amount the County sets is generally the engineer-estimated cost of the public improvements, and the bond is often reduced as work is accepted.
