STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30819 / H0443
The Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses seeks to amend Idaho Code to allow for an exemption
from licensure for subcontractors performing work on a project managed by a licensed public works contractor
when the value of the subcontracted work is less than $100,000. It also eliminates the category of Class D
licensure. This proposed statutory change would help to align Idaho's licensing requirements with the current
business climate and construction market.
FISCAL NOTE
The Division currently charges an initial license fee of $50 and an annual fee of $40 for Class D licenses. This
would result in a loss of revenue to the Division. However, it would also likely result in a higher number of
individuals applying for Class C licensure. Therefore, the impact to the Division would likely be minimal or
no fiscal impact.
