About this file

This document contains generic bond templates from the City of Royal Oak, Michigan, for use in municipal construction contracts. The file includes three bond forms: a Performance, Maintenance and Guarantee Bond, and a Labor and Material Bond, both designed to protect the City from contractor non-performance, defects, and unpaid labor or material claims. The Performance Bond requires the contractor to maintain all completed work in good condition for one year following final estimate, with the contractor responsible for correcting any defects arising from improper materials, defective equipment, or workmanship. The contractor must respond to written repair notices within one week, or the City may perform repairs at the contractor's expense. The Labor and Material Bond, issued in compliance with Michigan Public Acts 187 (1905) and 213 (1963), ensures payment to all subcontractors and suppliers for labor and materials furnished under the contract.

Both bonds are issued jointly and severally by the principal contractor and surety and remain in full force despite any contract modifications or extensions authorized by the City. The bonds require completion of work according to all contract conditions and stipulations, with the contractor maintaining full indemnification and liability coverage for injuries or damages to persons or property arising from the contractor's negligence, employees, agents, subcontractors, or material suppliers. These are template documents with blank fields for contractor names, surety information, bond amounts, contract descriptions, execution dates, and surety contact information to be completed for individual projects such as the 2026 Road Reconstruction Improvements project in Royal Oak.
