Buildings and safety
Under current law, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) is generally required to regulate the construction of public buildings and buildings that are places of employment. Current law also authorizes Commerce to conduct inspections and to administer examinations, and issue certain credentials, to persons engaged in the construction trades, such as plumbers and electricians. Commerce is required to fix, by rule, the amount of the fees for the various services that it provides for these purposes. Current law establishes the maximum fees that Commerce may charge for certain services including examinations and licenses for master and journeyman plumbers and for automatic fire sprinkler contractors. This bill eliminates the mandatory caps on the amounts that Commerce may charge for these services and instead provides that the fees established by rule must as closely as possible equal the cost of providing the services.

Commerce
The Department of Commerce currently awards grants to fund transitional housing and associated supportive services for, and to fund the provision of shelter to, homeless individuals and families. The grants are funded by an annual appropriation from general purpose revenues, and currently, moneys in the appropriation account that are allocated but not encumbered by December 31 of each year lapse to the general fund unless JCF transfers the moneys to the next calendar year. This bill deletes the lapse requirement and makes the appropriation a biennial appropriation. As a result, unencumbered moneys in the appropriation account will lapse to the general fund at the end of each fiscal biennium.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
