Bancroft-Clover Water and Sanitation District Contractor License Bond
What it is & who requires it
Contractors doing work within the Bancroft-Clover Water and Sanitation District, which serves parts of Lakewood and unincorporated Jefferson County. The District licenses contractors directly and requires the license before you work on its water or sewer system: its rules define a licensed plumber or pipe layer as a person who has been bonded with the District and holds the appropriate state license to work on water works or sewage systems, and where applicable the City of Lakewood and unincorporated Jefferson County credentials as well. Connections to a District main must be made by those licensed and bonded plumbers or pipe layers. A certificate of liability insurance is filed with the bond.

Term & renewal
Term: Held current for the license year; the District requires a current bond on file, not merely one that was once filed.
Renewal: Annual, with the contractor license renewal.
Filing
Filed with the District with your annual contractor license application, together with a current certificate of liability insurance and the annual license fee. The District publishes this as a surety bond at a stated sum and offers no cash or deposit alternative for it, which is why the figure appears here. Do not confuse it with the District’s other bond: its Rules and Regulations separately let the District require a project bond of an applicant or their contractor before work begins, in a sum determined by the District in its sole discretion and never less than half the total cost of the work, executed by a qualified corporate surety or other qualified financial institution — and the District has sole discretion over whether to require it at all. That one is sized to the job and decided project by project; this one is the annual license bond. A third instrument applies to line extensions built by parties other than the District, where the constructor furnishes a performance and maintenance bond equal to the contract price of the line and guarantees a year’s maintenance from acceptance.
