This bill amends the membership qualifications for the State Licensing Board for Contractors in Louisiana. Specifically, it removes the requirement that at least two members have significant experience as subcontractors in fields other than electrical or mechanical construction, which was previously appointed from a list provided by the American Subcontractors Association of Louisiana.
In place of this requirement, the bill introduces two new qualifications for board members. One member must have substantial experience as a licensed concrete contractor, with nominations submitted by the Louisiana Concrete Association and appointed by the governor. Additionally, another member must have significant experience as a subcontractor, with nominations coming from the American Subcontractors Association of Louisiana, also to be appointed by the governor. This change aims to diversify the expertise represented on the board.
