(California) If I am going to do Board ups for the city, based of an as needed basis. Would I need a bond there is no actual set price or location. Work is done as requested and we as the contractor are not paid until the work is completed , work order is signed and we invoice the city. Original RFP did not have an amount for the contract .So when bidding we did not take in to account the cost of a bond. Now we are trying to figure out the bond requirements and cost. A new city attorney wrote a different contract after the bid was excepted . Normally In California we do not do bonds unless the contracts over 25,000.00 Seeing as this is an as emergency basis and price is per job, we have no clue how many we will get in one year how do we choose a bond? The city agrees yet they have not come up with an answer to the issue. We have discussed a maintenance bond, but the verbiage includes warranties. Boarding up a broken window or door is temporary. So a warranty would not really apply. Materials to preform the work have to be purchased before hand to be able to do the work. Would you suggest a bond? Or is this a project that should not require a bond. Wehave done city work before but witht he new city attorney things just changed it sems.
