About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Odessa registers sign hanging contractors and conditions that registration on a $5,000 surety bond filed with the City. The bond is a compliance-and-public-safety guarantee: it stands behind your installation and erection of signs and your compliance with the City's sign ordinance and permit conditions.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Odessa (the obligee), with property owners and the public as the protected parties. If a sign contractor erects an unsafe sign, damages public property, or violates the sign code, the City can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Sign contractors who permit their work and install to code treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

City of Odessa — sign contractor registrationThe City of Odessa requires this $5,000 bond as a condition of its sign hanging / erection contractor registration; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of Odessa Building Inspections / Permitting department. We issue the bond on the City’s form — send us your registration packet and we’ll match it.
