PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The Board proposes the rule amendment to increase the fee for the biennial registry for licensed and certified appraisers.
SUMMARY: The fee for biennial registry for licensed and certified appraisers will be increased to cover increase from the Appraisal Subcommittee.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: A Statement of Estimated Regulatory Cost was prepared.

• There will be no additional cost to the department for implementing the proposed rule.
• There will be no cost to any other state and local government entities of implementing the proposed rule.
