About this file

This is a Bid Bond form for the City of Midland, Texas related to the Jal Draw Excavation drainage project. The bid bond secures the principal's commitment to enter into a construction contract for improvements to Jal Draw, generally located from Barton Creek to SH 158, with an additive alternate for a shared use trail. The bond establishes the obligee's right to collect liquidated damages in the full bond amount if the principal withdraws its bid after opening and before official rejection, or if awarded the contract but fails to enter into the agreement and furnish satisfactory Performance and Payment Bonds. The bond is jurisdiction-specific to Midland County, Texas, with venue established in that county for any legal action.

The specific bond amount, principal, and surety information are left blank in this template form, requiring completion upon submission. The bond form requires execution by both the principal and surety, approval as to form by the City Attorney, and attachment of a Power of Attorney form. The document was revised in August 2026 and represents a standard requirement for bid participation in municipal construction projects for the City of Midland.
