What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A sign-contractor bond is a code-compliance guarantee. The City of Yonkers registers the contractors who install, erect, and maintain signs in the City — the bond gives the City a financial backstop that you follow its sign and building codes and correct unsafe or non-compliant work.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Yonkers (the obligee). If a sign contractor violates City sign code or damages public property, the City can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. For most contractors the bond is simply a line on the City registration checklist.

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 premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
