RESOLUTION

 

 

urging the contractors license board to reclassify or eliminate the interim specialty license.

 

 


     WHEREAS, the Contractors License Board, pursuant to sections 444-4 and 444-8, Hawaii Revised Statutes, has the authority to create and maintain contractors' licenses for the State; and

 

     WHEREAS, the Board may, after a hearing, establish, modify, or delete existing license classifications based on established usage in the construction industry; and

 

     WHEREAS, classifications under the C-68 classified specialist license may be established until the work performed is defined and a hearing is held to establish the proper classification; and

 

     WHEREAS, the C-68 classified specialist license is considered by those in the construction industry to be an interim specialty license; and

 

     WHEREAS, the definition of classifications under the C-68 classified specialist license does not adequately inform the public or other interested parties of the scope of work a contractor working under a C-68 license may perform; now therefore,

 

     BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the Twenty-ninth Legislature of the State of Hawaii, Regular Session of 2017, the House of Representatives concurring, that the Contractors License Board is urged to conduct a review of the C-68 classified specialist license classification and modify the existing classification or propose and adopt a new specialty license classification to replace the existing C-68 license classification; and

 

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board is requested to submit a report of its findings and actions to the Legislature no later than twenty days prior to the convening of the Regular Session of 2018; and

 

     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that certified copies of this Concurrent Resolution be transmitted to the Governor, Director of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, Auditor, Director of the Legislative Reference Bureau, Chairperson of the Board of Electricians and Plumbers, and the Chairperson of the Contractors License Board.
