Statement of Scope
REAL ESTATE EXAMINING BOARD
Rule No.: | REEB 16.03 (1), 25.023, 25.028, 25.033 and 25.038 |
Relating to: | Obsolete cross-references in real estate broker education and update terminology |
1. Finding/nature of emergency (Emergency Rule only): N/A
2. Detailed description of the objective of the proposed rule:
The objective to the proposed rule is to remove cross-references to REEB 17.08 which was repealed in CR 16-042, correct an inconsistency relating to useage of forms created by CR 16-042 and update terminology resulting from 2015 Act 258 in REEB 25.033 and 25.038 which was not addressed in CR 16-042. 3. Description of the existing policies relevant to the rule, new policies proposed to be included in the rule, and an analysis of policy alternatives:
This rule will not create new policy. This rule does the following:
• Repeal obsolete cross-references.
• Fixes an inconsistency. In the CR 16-042, s. REEB 16.03 (1) was amended to refer to forms for use for licensees (i.e brokers and salespersons) which created an inconsistency with forms which can only be used by salespersons. This rule will amend the word “licensees” to “brokers”. Prior to CR 16-042, the usage of forms was divided by forms which can be used by brokers and forms which can be used by salespersons and this rule returns clarity to the usage of forms. • Updates terminology in REEB 25.033 and 25.038 resulting from 2015 Act 258 but not updated as part of CR 16-042. 4. Detailed explanation of statutory authority for the rule (including the statutory citation and language):
15.08 (5) (b) Each examining board shall promulgate rules for its own guidance and for the guidance of the profession to which it pertains, and define and enforce professional conduct and unethical practices not inconsistent with the law relating to the particular trade or profession.
452.05 (1) (c) The board shall after consultation with the council on real estate curriculum and examinations, promulgate rules establishing criteria for the approval of educational programs and training sessions under s. 452.09 (2) and approve such programs and sessions in accordance with the established criteria. 452.07 (1) The board shall promulgate rules for the guidance of the real estate profession and define professional conduct and unethical practice.
5. Estimate of amount of time that state employees will spend developing the rule and of other resources necessary to develop the rule:
