Anamosa House Mover Bond

What it is & who requires it

Contractors moving a building or structure in Anamosa. The bond guarantees the permittee’s payment for any damage done to the city or to public property and payment of all costs the city incurs in the course of moving the building or structure. No figure renders because the ordinance states a minimum rather than a sum. This is the same model provision several other Iowa cities run, and Anamosa carries the floor variant of it, so a number quoted from a nearby city that uses the fixed variant will not be the number Anamosa asks for.

Obligee: City of Anamosa (City Clerk). Citation: Anamosa Code of Ordinances § 123.04 (Bond required), ch. 123 (House Movers); § 123.10 (Removal by city).
