About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Lebanon conditions certain permits on a $10,000 surety bond filed with the City. The bond stands behind the permit holder's compliance with the conditions attached to the permit and the City's applicable code requirements for the work performed.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lebanon (the obligee), with property owners and the City itself as parties the bond can protect. If a permit holder fails to perform covered obligations, a harmed party can make a claim against the bond up to its $10,000 face amount.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond generally needs to stay active for the life of the permit, so confirm renewal timing directly with Lebanon's Building Inspections department when you file.

City of Lebanon Building Inspections DepartmentThe City of Lebanon's Building Inspections department sets the $10,000 bond as a condition of the permit this filing supports. We could not independently verify a specific municipal code section for this requirement, so we name the department rather than cite a number — confirm the exact code section, the permit type this bond attaches to, and any additional steps directly with the City before filing.
