About this file

This is a Bid Bond form (BLR 12230) issued by the City of Urbana, County of Champaign, Illinois for a road and bridge construction project designated as Section 26-00716-00-SS. The bid bond serves as a surety instrument required for proposal submission and ensures that the principal contractor will enter into a formal contract within fifteen (15) days of award. The form requires completion by both the principal contractor and the surety, with notarization by a notary public. Contractors may submit either a traditional completed bid bond or an electronic bid bond, provided the local public agency has authorized electronic submission.

The bid bond penal sum is set at 5% of the total bid price or the amount specified in the proposal documents, whichever is lesser. Should the principal fail to execute a formal contract and furnish required performance surety and insurance coverage as specified in the Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction and applicable Supplemental Specifications, the local public agency is entitled to recover the full penal sum plus court costs, attorney fees, and other recovery expenses. The form was last revised on January 19, 2023, and this particular bond was completed on May 20, 2026. Joint ventures involving multiple contractors must provide company names and authorized signatures from each contractor participant.
