SB 1412 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Contractors - As introduced, clarifies that an applicant for a license under the "Contractors Licensing Act of 1994" who has been advised to appear before the board at a scheduled time and place must provide notice to the board of the applicant's inability to appear three business days in advance, rather than three calendar days. - Amends TCA Title 5; Title 6; Title 7; Title 47, Chapter 18; Title 62, Chapter 6 and Title 67, Chapter 4.

SB 1412 modifies Tennessee's Contractor Licensing Act by changing the notice requirement for applicants who cannot attend scheduled board hearings. Specifically, it updates the rule from requiring "three calendar days" advance notice to "three business days" notice. This change directly affects individuals applying for contractor licenses under the 1994 Licensing Act who must notify the licensing board of their inability to appear. The bill amends multiple sections of Tennessee Code related to contracting procedures but does not alter licensing standards or fees. The change takes effect July 1, 2025.
