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.

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 $7,500 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.
How to file it
File with the City of Maumee. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Maumee for your sewer tapper license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $7,500 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
