About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the performance & maintenance bond covers

When a developer or contractor builds public improvements — roads, utilities, drainage — for the City of Poulsbo, the City requires a performance bond that the work is completed to City standards and a maintenance bond that it holds up through the warranty period after acceptance.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Poulsbo (the obligee). If the improvements are not completed, or fail during the maintenance / warranty period, the City can recover its cost against the bond.

It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the City, you repay the surety — which is why this bond runs one soft credit pull to inform approval. Pricing is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, regardless of the check outcome. We issue the amount Poulsbo set.
