What it is and who needs it.
What the performance bond actually covers
A performance bond for the Town of Babylon guarantees that the public or site improvements tied to your approval — paving, drainage, sidewalks, utilities, landscaping — are actually built to the town's standards. It is a completion guarantee, not a payment or maintenance bond.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Babylon (the obligee). If the required work is left unfinished or fails to meet the approved plans, the town can call the bond to finish the work.
We issue the amount the town set; premiums start from $100. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Larger performance bonds may get a quick underwriting review.

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 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Town of Babylon. Submit the executed bond to the town to release your approval or permit. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
