What this form is
The bond covers damage connected to construction work performed under one or more permits, including repair costs for affected private or public property, substructures, and utilities. Beverly Hills requires the Principal to provide it as a condition of issuing each applicable permit. The obligation generally continues for one year after the permitted work is completed, unless the Director of Public Works releases it sooner.
Who needs it
A construction permit applicant whose project requires this bond must arrange for the Principal and Surety to execute it for submission to the City.
Why it needs a notary
The form contains an acknowledgment, not a jurat; the Surety’s attorney-in-fact signs before the notary and acknowledges signing for the corporation.
