What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Warren's Code of Ordinances, Chapter 8, licenses auctioneers who conduct sales within the city. Section 8-25 requires the applicant to execute a $2,500 surety bond, approved by the city attorney, before the City Clerk's office issues the license.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Warren (the obligee), with buyers, sellers, and the city as the protected parties. If a licensed auctioneer's conduct violates Warren's ordinances or causes covered harm, a claim can be made against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond has to stay active for the life of your license, so we track the term and send renewal reminders so your license doesn't lapse.
