What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An itinerant vendor / peddler bond is a consumer-protection guarantee to the City of Ballinger and the residents you sell to. The City wants a financial backstop that a transient seller will deliver what's paid for and follow the City's solicitation rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Ballinger (the obligee), with the buying public as the protected parties. If a vendor takes money and fails to deliver, or violates the City's peddler ordinance, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of the permit. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, so your $1,000 filing stays continuous and your peddler permit keeps clearing.
