About this file
This is a Performance Bond document for the City of Meriden, Connecticut, related to the B026-51 Lincoln Paving Project. The bond serves as a guarantee that the contractor will faithfully perform the contract for the reconstruction of the Lincoln Middle School parking lot located at 164 Centennial Ave, Connecticut. The project scope includes removal and replacement of pavement, curbing, drainage structure tops, pavement markings, and installation of sedimentation control measures. The performance bond obligates the contractor and surety jointly and severally to ensure proper completion of all work in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, specifications, and drawings prepared by the designated engineer or architect.
The performance bond establishes the surety's liability in an amount specified in the bond document, which represents the performance guarantee. If the contractor defaults under the contract, the surety must either complete the work or obtain a responsible bidder to complete the work, with the surety arranging funding sufficient to cover completion costs minus the remaining contract balance. The surety waives notice of any contract alterations or extensions granted by the owner. Any legal action under the bond must be initiated within two years from the date final payment is due under the contract. The bond is binding only on the named owner and their successors and does not create rights for third parties.
