What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Prairie Township conditions contracting work on a registered, bonded contractor. The $15,000 bond stands behind your registration: that your work follows the township's building rules and the Ohio code, and that you correct work that fails inspection.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Prairie Township (the obligee). If your work violates the applicable code and the township or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pass inspection treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
