What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A sewer tapper bond is a public-works compliance guarantee. When you cut into the City of Sylvania's sewer main to make a tap or connection, the City wants assurance the work meets its specifications and that any disturbed street, curb, or public property is restored.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Sylvania (the obligee). If a tap is done improperly or public property is left damaged, the City can recover the cost of repair against the $10,000 bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Tappers who follow the City's specs and restore the right-of-way treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
