Notice of Declaratory Statement

DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL REGULATION
Construction Industry Licensing Board
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that Construction Industry Licensing Board has issued an order disposing of the petition for declaratory statement filed by Mark A. Annunziata on October 06, 2011. The following is a summary of the agency's disposition of the petition:
The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Vol. 37, No. 44, of the November 4, 2011, Florida Administrative Weekly. The Board considered the Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on November 11, 2011. The Board’s Order, filed on December 29, 2011, grants the Petition for Declaratory Statement. Pursuant to Section 489.113, Florida Statutes, a contractor may employ a person who is not licensed to perform work under supervision of the contractor provided the work is within the scope of the contractor’s license. Likewise, the contractor may subcontract to other licensed contractors. Therefore a general contractor can subcontract work to those competent to perform it, and the residential contractor’s license does not preclude a person from working for a general contractor.
A copy of the Order Disposing of the Petition for Declaratory Statement may be obtained by contacting: Drew Winters, Executive Director, Construction Industry Licensing Board, Post Office Box 5257, Tallahassee, Florida 32314-5257.
