About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Township of Genesee requires a fidelity and performance bond from contractors who tap into, extend, or repair its sanitary sewer and water line systems. The bond is a performance guarantee that the work is done to the Township’s standards and that the public infrastructure is protected and properly restored.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Township of Genesee (the obligee). If a contractor damages the system, fails to complete the connection properly, or violates the Township’s sewer and water requirements, the Township can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow the Township’s sewer and water specifications treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

Township of Genesee, MichiganThe Township of Genesee requires a $10,000 fidelity and performance bond from contractors performing sanitary sewer or water line work connecting to or affecting its public systems, as a condition set by the Township’s water and sewer department.
