How Does a City of Detroit Amusement Bond Work?
An amusement bond creates a legal contract between these three parties:
- Principal: You, the carnival operator filing the bond
- Obligee: The Detroit Consumer Affairs Department requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of Detroit Municipal Code Chapter 5.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you must ultimately refund the surety.
