This bill amends Section 46.4 of Title 59 of the Oklahoma Statutes, which pertains to the Board of Governors of the Architects, Landscape Architects, and Licensed Interior Designers of Oklahoma. The key change is the extension of the board's sunset date from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2036, ensuring its continued operation under the Oklahoma Sunset Law. The bill also updates statutory language related to the board's composition and appointment process, including clarifications on the appointment of members and the handling of vacancies.

Additionally, the bill specifies that each board member must take an oath of office before assuming their duties and outlines reimbursement for travel expenses in accordance with the State Travel Reimbursement Act. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, but includes an emergency clause, allowing it to be enacted immediately upon passage and approval to preserve public peace, health, or safety.
