    (a) A sign contractor may post a compliance bond with the commissioner, conditioned that
the sign contractor shall faithfully perform duties and comply with laws, ordinances, rules, and
contracts entered into for the installation of signs. The bond must be renewed annually and
maintained for so long as determined by the commissioner. The aggregate liability of the surety
on the bond to any and all persons, regardless of the number of claims made against the bond,
may not exceed the annual amount of the bond. The bond may be canceled as to future liability by
the surety upon 30 days' written notice mailed to the commissioner by United States mail.
    (b) The amount of the bond shall be $8,000. The bond may be drawn upon only by a local
unit of government that requires sign contractors to post a compliance bond. The bond is in lieu of
any compliance bond required by a local unit of government.
    (c) For purposes of this section, "sign" means a device, structure, fixture, or placard using
graphics, symbols, or written copy that is erected on the premises of an establishment including
the name of the establishment or identifying the merchandise, services, activities, or entertainment
available on the premises.
