Washington, MI Township Water Sewer Bond
Overview
Washington Township requires contractors who perform water and sewer work to carry this surety bond before they can operate legally within the township's jurisdiction. It protects Washington Township and its residents from financial harm caused by substandard installations, incomplete work, or damage to public infrastructure. If a bonded contractor fails to meet the township's standards, the bond provides a financial remedy. This is a local Michigan requirement specific to Washington Township — not a statewide license bond.
Who Needs This Bond?
Plumbing and sewer contractors who perform water or sewer installations, connections, or repairs within Washington Township, MI need this bond. If you've been told by the township that you must be bonded before pulling a permit or beginning utility work, this is the bond you need. Contractors tapping into township water mains or sewer lines are the most common applicants. You cannot proceed with that work until this bond is in place.
What is this Bond For?
This bond guarantees that your water and sewer work in Washington Township will meet the township's standards and that you will complete the work as required. It protects the township from the cost of correcting faulty utility connections or repairing damage to public water and sewer infrastructure. Washington Township is the obligee — meaning the bond is issued in their favor. You, as the contractor, are the principal who is bound by its terms.
When is it Required?
Approval of a permit application for water or sewer work in Washington Township triggers this bond requirement. The township will not issue a permit — or allow work to begin — until a valid bond is on file. If you are bidding on a job that requires tapping a water main or connecting to the sewer system, secure this bond before you submit your permit application. Waiting until permit submission day will delay your project.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies exclusively within Washington Township, Michigan. It satisfies a local township requirement and has no effect in other Michigan municipalities or counties. All work covered by this bond must be located within Washington Township's service area and subject to its utility regulations.
