What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A municipal contractor license bond is a code-compliance guarantee. When you build in the Village of Highland Hills, the Village wants a financial backstop that you'll follow its building code and ordinances and repair work that fails inspection.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Highland Hills (the obligee). If you damage Village property, abandon a permitted job, or violate the building code, the Village or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your registration. Let it lapse and the Village can pull your contractor registration — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $25,000 filing continuous.
