What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Horn Lake conditions its contractor privilege license on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a compliance guarantee to the city — it stands behind your obligation to follow Horn Lake's building codes, ordinances, and permit conditions when you work inside the city.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Horn Lake (the obligee). If a licensed contractor violates a city ordinance or leaves permitted work uncorrected, the city can recover against the bond.
This bond carries a statutory renewal on December 31, so the term you select runs to a year-end date. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the expiration and notify you ahead of the year-end so your license filing stays continuous.

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 bond runs to December 31 whatever day you buy; the premium covers the period to that date.
Renewal falls on the statutory date, December 31, in the year your term ends.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
