About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the utility deposit bond actually does

The Lenoir City Utilities Board (LCUB) is the municipal utility serving Lenoir City and the surrounding area with electric, water, natural gas, and broadband service. Like most utilities, it can require a deposit to open a new account or where billing history warrants — and it accepts a surety bond instead of cash.

The bond is a guarantee to LCUB that your utility charges will be paid. If the account goes unpaid and is closed with a balance owed, LCUB can recover against the bond up to the deposit amount — rather than against a cash deposit it would otherwise hold.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays LCUB, you repay the surety. The advantage is cash flow: you pay a small premium instead of locking up the full deposit with the utility. Enter the figure LCUB set and see your exact price — the application collects no credit information.

Lenoir City Utilities Board — deposit requirementThe Lenoir City Utilities Board sets its own customer deposit requirement by board policy / utility service rules; this surety bond is accepted in place of that cash deposit. The deposit amount is set by LCUB for your specific account — we issue the bond for whatever figure LCUB named. We have not cited a statute because municipal utility deposits are governed by the board's service policy rather than state code; send us your LCUB notice and we'll confirm the amount.
