This is a Consent of Surety Form for the City of Chester, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, related to the Chester Police Station - 3rd Floor Interior Renovations project (Bid Number 2026-002). The form establishes the bonding company's commitment to execute required performance bonds if the bidder is awarded the contract. The project involves renovating approximately 1,500 square feet on the 3rd floor of the Chester Police Station, including demolition, new drywall, new carpet, new lighting, painting, and incidental improvements. This is a lump sum contract opportunity subject to Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Project Rates. The form requires the bonding company to certify its organization under state law, licensing to conduct business in Pennsylvania, and willingness to provide surety in the full amount specified in the contract documents for faithful performance of all contractor obligations.

The Consent of Surety Form serves as a preliminary commitment from the bonding company prior to formal contract execution. Bidders must submit this form as part of their bid package to demonstrate financial backing and bonding capacity. The form does not specify the bond amount, as this will be determined in the final contract documents. No specific award date or contract term is referenced in the surety form itself; however, the related contract opportunity indicates the project was expected to be awarded in the third quarter of 2025 with a January 1, 2026 start date. The form requires completion of standard identifying information including the bonding company name, state of organization, bidder company name, signature line, signatory title, and corporate seal.
