SB 1625 Hawaii Senate · 2026 Regular Session

RELATING TO LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS.

SB 1625 adopts a uniform licensing standard for landscape architects developed by the Council of Landscape Architectural Registration Boards. This bill directly affects landscape architects seeking or renewing their licenses in the state by aligning local requirements with a nationally recognized standard. The key provision requires the state licensing board to implement this established standard instead of maintaining separate, potentially inconsistent rules. The change simplifies the licensure process for professionals while ensuring consistent qualifications across jurisdictions.
