HB 623 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

CONTRACTORS: Provides relative to the membership of the State Licensing Board for Contractors

HB 623 amends the law governing the Louisiana State Licensing Board for Contractors to ensure specific representation for concrete contractors and subcontractors. The bill requires the governor to appoint one board member based on experience as a licensed concrete contractor, selected from a list provided by the Speaker of the House. It also mandates the appointment of a second member with primary experience as a subcontractor, chosen from a list submitted by the Senate president. These changes directly affect the composition of the licensing board by defining how these two specific industry representatives are selected and appointed.
