What it is and who needs it.
What the itinerant vendor bond covers
An itinerant vendor is a traveling or temporary seller — someone who sets up in a city for a limited time rather than running a fixed local storefront. The City of Clifton conditions an itinerant vendor permit on a surety bond so that customers have recourse if the vendor takes money and fails to deliver, or leaves town with an unresolved complaint.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Clifton (the obligee), with Clifton customers protected. If a vendor defrauds a buyer or violates the permit terms, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
The City sets the penal sum. Whatever amount appears on your permit, we price the bond at 1% of that amount, with a $100 minimum — and if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
