Sponsor: Senator Rogers, LD 7
House Engrossed
Overview
Creates an exemption to Board of Technical Registration (BTR) compliance requirements for nonregistrants to make an interior nonstructural alteration of an individual unit of a commercial space.
History
The BTR is required to adopt and enforce standards of qualification for engineers, architects, assayers, geologists, land surveyors, landscape architects, home inspectors and alarm agents. BTR determines whether applicants are qualified for registration or certification and conduct exams and investigations (A.R.S. § 32-106).
Currently, a non-registrant who designs an addition or alteration to certain one- or two-story buildings or structures in which the floor area does not exceed 3,000 square feet is exempt from BTR compliance requirements. A non-registrant is allowed to exceed the 3,000 square foot limitation and still be exempt from BTR compliance requirements for a one-time single addition, itself not exceeding 1,500 square feet (A.R.S. § 32-144).
Provisions
1. Allows a non-registrant who designs additions or alterations to certain one- or two-story buildings or structures in which the floor area does not exceed 3,000 square feet to exceed the square foot limit for an interior nonstructural alteration of an individual unit of a commercial space if that individual unit does not exceed 3,000 square feet. (Sec. 1)
2. Specifies that the square foot limit exemption for the interior nonstructural alteration of individual units of commercial spaces does not apply to assembly occupancy buildings as defined in the adopted building code. (Sec. 1)
3. Makes technical and conforming changes. (Sec. 1)
