Bill > AB1341

This bill amends the Contractors State License Law to expand the definition of "building laws of the state" and provide more comprehensive grounds for disciplinary action against licensed contractors. Specifically, the bill broadens the existing regulations to include violations related to the unlicensed or improper practice of professional fields such as architecture, landscape architecture, engineering, geology, geophysics, and land surveying. The bill adds several specific sections of legal code to the definition of "building laws," which means that willful or deliberate disregard of these provisions can now be grounds for disciplinary action by the Contractors State License Board. The changes aim to strengthen regulatory oversight by explicitly listing prohibited practices and ensuring that contractors who violate these professional standards can be held accountable. By revising and expanding the scope of disciplinary actions, the bill seeks to maintain professional standards and protect public safety in construction and related industries.
