About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the utility deposit bond actually does

The Sparta Electric and Water System is the municipal utility serving the City of Sparta and the surrounding White County area with electric and water 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 the utility that your charges will be paid. If the account goes unpaid and is closed with a balance owed, the Sparta Electric and Water System 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 the utility, you repay the surety. The advantage is cash flow: you pay a small premium instead of locking up the full deposit. Enter the figure Sparta set and see your exact price — the application collects no credit information.

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