A bond is required to ensure that work will be completed in compliance with the regulations of the permit; approved plans and specifications; and the relevant statutes. The work should be performed under the specific conditions of the City Engineer as well.
How does a Dana Point California Engineering Permit Bond work?
It is a legal contract between three parties. The principal or the permit applicant will be the first party. The second party, known as the obligee, will be the City of Dana Point. The third-party will be the surety.
The surety will extend its credit to the principal and vouch for the principal’s capability to fulfill the contract to the obligee. If the principal fails to do so, the obligee will seek financial recovery to finish the work that the principal failed to do. This will be done through a bond claim.
How much does a Dana Point California Engineering Permit Bond cost?
The bond cost or bond premium will typically be 1.0% to 7.5% of the bond amount. The bond cost will depend on the principal’s credit score.
The bond amount will be determined by the Director of Public Works and Engineering Services of the City of Dana Point.
For example, if your bond amount is $15,000 and your credit score is excellent, you only need to pay $150 as a bond premium.
