Bill > AB2287

This bill amends existing law, specifically Section 7110 of the Business and Professions Code, which outlines grounds for disciplinary action against licensed contractors. Previously, a contractor could face disciplinary action for willfully disregarding and violating various building laws, safety regulations, labor laws, and specific codes related to construction and contracting. This bill introduces a new provision, subdivision (b), which states that a contractor using modern technologies, tools, and equipment in their construction work will not be subject to disciplinary action for doing so, even if it might have previously been considered a violation under the existing broad language of the law. This change aims to encourage the adoption of new methods and tools in the construction industry without fear of penalty.
