Ours is $100 flat — the price our carrier sets for this specific bond. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A City of Canyon sign contractor bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee. Canyon wants assurance that the signs you permit and install meet city sign and electrical code, and that the public and the city aren't left covering the cost if a sign you put up isn't built or anchored to code.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Canyon (the obligee). If you violate the sign or building code under which you registered, the city — or a harmed party — can make a claim against the bond.

The bond must stay active for as long as you hold your Canyon registration. Let it lapse and the city can pull your registration — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.

City of Canyon Planning & Development OfficeThe City of Canyon requires sign contractors (electrical and non-electrical) to register with its Planning & Development Office and to present a $10,000 surety bond as a condition of registration. The bond amount and terms are set by the City of Canyon; we do not cite a specific ordinance number we cannot verify.
