About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

An alarm-systems bond is a city-protection guarantee. Under Henderson Municipal Code Chapter 4.18, no new license issues to an alarm-systems business until it files a $10,000 surety bond with the city's licensing division — taken in the name of the City of Henderson.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Henderson (the obligee). The City may bring legal action on the bond to recover delinquent license fees and false-alarm fees, so it backs the business's obligations to the City up to the $10,000 penal sum.

The bond must stay in force during the first year of licensure — let it lapse and the license is suspended until it's renewed. After one year, the code lets a licensee substitute a $3,500 certificate of deposit. We keep your $10,000 bond continuous through that first year with renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.

Henderson Municipal Code Chapter 4.18 (Alarm Systems)Henderson Municipal Code Chapter 4.18 provides that no new license issues to conduct an alarm-systems business until the applicant files a $10,000 surety bond, taken in the name of the City; the City may bring legal action on the bond to recover delinquent license fees and false-alarm fees. The bond must remain in force during the first year of licensure; after one year, the licensee may substitute a $3,500 certificate of deposit.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the City of Henderson alarm bond? +
The premium is $300 — a flat 3% of the fixed $10,000 bond amount, the same for every alarm business. The $10,000 is set by Henderson Municipal Code Chapter 4.18, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000? +
No. You pay $300. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the City if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How long do I need the bond? +
Under Chapter 4.18, the bond must stay in force during your first year of licensure, or the City suspends the license until it is renewed. After one year, the code lets you substitute a $3,500 certificate of deposit instead.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don't need one.
Where do I file it? +
With the City of Henderson's licensing division, as part of your alarm-systems business license application under Henderson Municipal Code Chapter 4.18. We deliver the executed bond ready to file.
