FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 61
2021 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
HB 61 will add commercial interior design as a professional license type under the Alaska State Board of Registration for
Architects, Engineers, and Land Surveyors. The bill would increase the size of the board from 11 to 13 members and
proposes the board's name become State Board of Registration for Architects, Engineers, Land Surveyors, Landscape
Architects, and Commercial Interior Designers.
If the bill passes the following expenses will be incurred:
Personal Services: $88.0 per year for one Occupational Licensing Examiner (Range 14)
Travel: $4.3 per year for the two new board members (two meetings and one conference)
Services: $15.0 per year for core services charges
$4.2 in FY2022 for legal costs to amend regulations, printing, and postage
Commodities: $10.0 in FY2022 for onetime set up costs for the licensing examiner position.
The approximate cost of a license cannot be calculated solely based on the additional costs identified in this fiscal note.
Per AS 08.01.065(f), fees must be the same for all occupations regulated by this board. A fee analysis would need to be
completed to determine the cost of a license. Commercial interior designers licensed under this legislation would bear a
portion of Department and Division overhead costs and core service charges; licensees of the other occupations regulated
by this board would bear a portion of the costs in this fiscal note.
Professional licensing programs within the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing are funded
by Receipt Supported Services, fund source 1156 Rcpt Svcs (DGF). Licensing fees for each occupation are set per AS
08.01.065 so the total amount of revenue collected approximately equals the occupations actual regulatory costs.
