Bond Information:
If vendors choose the semi-annual or annual license a bond is required. The semi-annual license bond is $250.00 and the annual is $500.00 The bond may be in the form of cash, check or money order and turned in with a completed application. No credit cards are accepted.
How does the bond work?
