Bill > HB4693

This bill modifies licensing fees and provisions for cosmetology-related occupations in Michigan, primarily focusing on updating fee structures for various professional licenses and registrations. The bill establishes new application processing fees for different categories like cosmetologists, manicurists, electrologists, and cosmetology establishments, with specific fees ranging from $15 to $100 depending on the type of application. License fees are also adjusted, increasing annual fees for cosmetology establishments from $25 to $150, schools of cosmetology from $100 to $250, and introducing a new $200 fee for secondary school facilities. The bill introduces a mechanism allowing the department to potentially increase these fees annually by a percentage equal to the average wage increase for civil service employees, with a requirement that the department provide a complete fee schedule to specified government offices by August 1st each year. Additionally, the bill clarifies language around fee publication and adds administrative provisions to ensure transparency in fee adjustments. Importantly, the bill is tied to another legislative measure (House Bill 4692) and will only take effect if that companion bill is also enacted into law.
