Wheatland Trade Contractor License Bond
What it is & who requires it
Gas pipefitters, electricians and water treatment installers licensed by the Town of Wheatland. Each application is accompanied by the license fee, proof of insurance and the bond. Applicants also submit proof of a Wyoming Trades Certification examination or an equivalent the town prescribes. Note the exemptions, which are from the testing rather than the license: handy-man contractors, excavation and grading contractors, home owners and other exempt entities. Wheatland does not license or bond general contractors at all — its buildings and construction title adopts the international codes and requires no contractor license.

Term & renewal
Term: Held with the annual license, conditioned for the faithful performance of the duties for which the license is issued.
Renewal: Annual — every license expires on 31 December of the year of issue, and a licensee wanting to renew applies to the town clerk within thirty days.
Filing
Filed with the Wheatland town clerk with your license application, together with the license fee and proof of insurance. The ordinance states the penal sum outright and offers no cash deposit or other instrument in its place, which is why the figure is published here. The license runs to the end of the calendar year regardless of when it is issued, so the first term is often short — and renewal is by application within thirty days rather than automatic. The building official may revoke a license for violations of the chapter, other ordinances, building codes or state law, and may place conditions on one that is reinstated. Authority: Wheatland Municipal Code Ch. 5.20.
