What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Village of Richfield lets only bonded contractors make connections to its sanitary sewer system. The bond is a guarantee to the Village that you'll make sewer connections according to Village specifications and code, and restore any public property or right-of-way you disturb.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Village of Richfield (the obligee). If a contractor damages the Village system, makes a defective connection, or fails to restore the site, the Village can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the Village on a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow the Village's sewer specifications treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

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.
