Existing law, the Contractors' State License Law, provides for the licensure and regulation of contractors by the Contractors' State License Board. Existing law requires the board to appoint a registrar to carry out administrative duties delegated by the board. Existing law authorizes an applicant for a license to qualify his or her knowledge and experience with a responsible managing officer, employee, member or manager who has certain qualifications. Under existing law, if the responsible managing officer, employee, member, or manager disassociates from the licensed entity, the licensee or the qualifier, as defined, is required to notify the registrar, as specified. Existing law authorizes the registrar to accept petitions from licensees disputing matters related to the disassociation. This bill would revise and recast those provisions by specifying that the notification be provided within 90 days after the date of disassociation. The bill would authorize the registrar to accept a petition for one 90-day extension to replace the qualifier under limited circumstances and would impose specified requirements related to that submittal. The bill would make other conforming changes.
