§ 90-362. License as constituting property of Board; display requirement; renewal; inactive status.

A license issued by the Board is the property of the Board and must be surrendered to the Board on demand. The licensee shall display the license certificate in the manner prescribed by the Board. The licensee shall inform the Board of any change of the licensee's address. The license shall be reissued by the Board annually upon payment of a renewal fee if the licensee is not in violation of this Article at the time of application for renewal and if the applicant fulfills current requirements of continuing education as established by the Board. Each person licensed under this Article is responsible for renewing his license before the expiration date. The Board shall notify a licensee of pending license expiration at least 30 days in advance thereof. The Board may provide for the late renewal of a license upon the payment of a late fee, but no such late fee renewal may be granted more than five years after a license expires. Under procedures and conditions established by the Board, a licensee may request that his license be declared inactive. The licensee may apply for active status at any time and upon meeting the conditions set by the Board shall be declared in active status. History (1991, c. 668, s. 1.)
