How Does a Yakima County Festival Bond Work?
A festival bond creates a legal contract between these three parties:
- Principal: You, the event promoter filing the bond
- Obligee: The Yakima County requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of Yakima County Code Chapter 8.10.
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.
