What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
When you cut pavement, occupy a lane, or place facilities in the City of Cheney's public right-of-way, the city wants a financial backstop that you'll restore the right-of-way to its prior condition and follow your permit conditions.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Cheney (the obligee). If you damage city streets and fail to repair them, the city can recover the cost of restoration against the bond.
The bond amount is whatever the city set on your permit. Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — same honest pricing as every bond we write.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it

What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
