This document is Exhibit 5 of a public construction bond requirement issued by the Bay County Board of County Commissioners in Florida for the 26-60 Majette Lift Station Repairs project. The bond serves as a performance and payment guarantee for the construction contract, requiring the principal contractor and surety to ensure completion of work at the Majette Community Center and Parks Administrative Office according to contract specifications and timelines. Electronic or sealed paper submissions must be received by 2:00 pm on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, with public opening immediately following the deadline. The bond obligates the contractor to perform all work as prescribed, make prompt payments to all claimants supplying labor, materials, or supplies, and pay the owner for any losses, damages, expenses, costs, and attorney's fees resulting from contractor default. The contractor must also guarantee all work and materials for the time period specified in the contract documents.

The bond amount, contract date, and specific project scope are to be filled in by the contracting parties. The document establishes that any action by a claimant against the bond must comply with notice and time limitation provisions under Florida Statutes Section 255.05(2), with claimants having 60 days from service of a notice of contest to file suit. The exhibit includes three supplementary forms: a Notice of Contest of Claim Against Payment Bond, a Waiver of Right to Claim Against the Payment Bond for progress payments, a Waiver of Right to Claim Against the Payment Bond for final payment, and a Final Lien Release with Hold Harmless and Indemnification Agreement. The vendor must warrant that final payment funds will be used to promptly pay all laborers, materials, suppliers, and subcontractors in full for work performed on the project.
