The bill also amends section 7125.7 to extend the Board\u2019s deadline for the creation of a worker\u2019s compensation exemption system for contractors without any employees to January 1, 2027.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Federally Recognized Tribes.<\/em><\/strong> SB 1455 amends section 7025.1 of the Business and Professions Code to define \u201cFederally recognized tribe\u201d as a tribe located in California and included in the Federal Register pursuant to the Federally Recognized Indian Tribe List Act of 1994, and includes an entity controlled by and established for the benefit of one or more tribes. CSLB must license a federally recognized tribe that applies for licensure if the tribe is compliant with the statutory provisions to engage in a business that CSLB regulates. SB 1455 further amends section 7065 of the Business and Professions Code to require a federally recognized tribal business to provide verification of its status as a tribal business to CSLB.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Workers\u2019 Compensation.<\/em><\/strong> SB 1455 amends section 7125.7 to require the Board to establish a process and procedure to verify whether an applicant or licensee without an employee or employees is eligible for exemption from the workers\u2019 compensation insurance requirement. In addition, SB 1455 will extend the requirement for every licensed contractor to have active workers\u2019 compensation insurance, if applicable, to January 1, 2028.<\/p>\n<p>On March 11, 2024, the Sunset Review Oversight Committee raised questions relating to CSLB\u2019s sunset review and discussed them during their oversight hearing and thereafter in a written <a href=\"https:\/\/perma.cc\/9S2R-AN3V\">background paper<\/a> prepared by the legislature <em>[see <a href=\"\/digital.sandiego.edu\/cgi\/viewcontent.cgi?article=3213&amp;context=crlr\">CRLR 29:2 38\u201341<\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n<p>At the Board\u2019s June 13-14, 2024, <a href=\"https:\/\/perma.cc\/HW3Y-QJB6\">meeting<\/a>, the Board reviewed the sunset bill and discussed an amendment to Workers\u2019 Compensation mandate that the Board had previously voted to support. Vice Chair Mark initiated discussion by sharing the Board staff\u2019s recommendation\u2014that the Board support the bill and appoint a two-person committee to study how to implement an exemption system before the January 1, 2027, deadline. Board member Ruane stated, \u201cthe board worked very hard to accomplish the 2026 deadline.\u201d Board member Granzella asked, \u201cwhat the downside is of not supporting the bill as written.\u201d Thereafter, Registrar Fogt and Chief Deputy Registrar Jamnetski voiced concerns that the board would become a bureau if the Board opposed the sunset bill at its current state.<\/p>\n<p>The Board thereafter discussed the possibility for Registrar Fogt to conduct his suggested study before January 1, 2026. After Registrar Fogt confirmed that he would be able to complete his study within the next 12 months, the Board moved to support SB 1455 with amendments. Those amendments were for sections 7125(f) and 7125.7 to have their deadlines reverted to January 1, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>At its June 21, 2024, <a href=\"https:\/\/perma.cc\/5Q5Q-25WM\">meeting<\/a>, the Board again discussed the May 16 version of the bill. Registrar Fogt stated that CSLB will cease to exist on January 1, 2025, if not extended by SB 1455. He made note of Board member\u2019s hesitation with the bill with regards to the worker\u2019s compensation mandate implementation date being extended from 2026 to 2028. He also restated oversight committee member Marc Berman\u2019s concerns that CSLB would be at risk of losing 10 percent of licensees if the mandatory workers\u2019 compensation requirement was placed into effect. After Board member comments, the Board thereafter voted to support the bill as amended by the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>All new amendments to SB 1455 become effective January 1, 2025.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-follow synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Follow us on Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CPILUSD\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Follow us on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-follow\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.sandiego.edu\/cpil-blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/circle\/64x64\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-follow synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Follow us on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cpilusd\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:32px;height:32px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Follow us on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-follow\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" style=\"display: inline;width:32px;height:32px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.sandiego.edu\/cpil-blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/circle\/64x64\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Grant Marcketta On September 22, 2024, Governor Newsom signed the Contractors State Licensing Board\u2019s (CSLB) sunset bill, SB 1455 (Ashby) (Chapter 485, Statutes of 2024), which extends the Board\u2019s sunset date to January 1, 2029.\u00a0 SB 1455 amends section <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.sandiego.edu\/cpil-blog\/2024\/11\/11\/contractors-state-licensing-board-survives-sunset-review\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1013,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[132898,134396],"tags":[132900,132903,133052,138291,54037,138057],"coauthors":[138175],"class_list":["post-986","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-contractors-state-license-board","category-legislation-contractors-state-license-board","tag-contractors","tag-cslb","tag-license","tag-sb1455","tag-sunset","tag-workers-compensation"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
