About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Maumee licenses sewer tappers — the contractors who cut into and connect to the city's public sanitary and storm sewers — and conditions that license on a $7,500 surety bond. The bond is a public-infrastructure guarantee: it stands behind your taps, connections, and street/right-of-way restorations being done to the city's standards.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Maumee (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a licensed tapper damages the public sewer, leaves a defective connection, or fails to restore the right-of-way, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Tappers who follow the city's sewer specifications and restore their cuts treat the bond as a license formality, and we keep your $7,500 filing continuous with renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
