Dates and locations are tentative until the agenda is posted. Please check with the Board office at 1-800-544-7693 or review the agenda for final schedule. § T.C.A 62-6-109 and Rule 0680-1-.02 requires the Board to meet six (6) times annually; at least once in each grand division (Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville).
The first day of the meeting is comprised of those scheduled to interview; typically for new contractor license applicants not meeting the criteria to have the personal interview waived (see new application instructions for "Board Review"). In addition, informal hearings, subcommittee meetings (residential and commercial), board discussion, revision and license approvals (regular business is conducted on the first day of the meeting). Note: The Board has adopted the "Roberts Rules of Order". Rulemakings and Formal Hearings are conducted on the second day of the Board's regularly scheduled meeting. These second day formal hearings are held in accordance to the provisions of the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, title 4, chapter 5; T.C.A.§§§ 62-6-109; 62-6-111, 62-6-118 and Rule 0680-1-.02. Statutes may be found under the "Law and Rules" on the resources section of the board's website.
Board meetings are open to the public, however, open complaint cases are presented anonymously to the Board by the Legal section on a report with only the identified license law violation and recommendations made by the Legal staff and subcommittees; parties of the complaint (consumer and contractor) are not identified or notified to attend the meeting. In the case of a "Formal Hearing", complaint parties may be notified at that time to attend in order to testify; contractors will be served with a notice of hearing and charges, and advised to appear with their attorney. Any disciplinary action taken at the Board's meeting will be published once the case is closed, and listed on the "Monthly Disciplinary Action" of the Department's site. Past action is published at the "Archived Disciplinary Action" site. Parties involved with a complaint case will be notified of the Board action after the case is closed by the Legal Section. Cases pending after being authorized for a Formal Hearing or Agreed Consent Order, will remain open and specifics of the cases are not released as public information. More information relative to the complaint process is available at "Consumer Resources".
Special meetings of the Board may be conducted pursuant T.C.A. § 8-44-108 for public necessity; T.C.A. § 62-6-109(c); and Rule 0680-1-.03, after giving advanced public notice.
Deadline date to submit contractor applications for Board Review:
-
New Licenses: 20th of the month prior to the next board meeting.
-
Revision Deadline: Last day of the month prior to next board meeting.
For example, if the next meeting is Tuesday, January 26, 2010, the deadline date for us to receive your application to obtain a new contractor's license would be Monday, December 21st (since the 20th is on a Sunday). Revision requests (increases, add classes, mode changes, etc.,) are due in the office by Thursday, December 31st. (Note: LLE, LLP and Home Improvement applications are not reviewed by the Board unless there are felony, judgements, or complaints on file.) See TCA § 62-6-111 and Rule 0680-1-.02 on the "Law and Rules" for additional information on deadline dates. For those failing to meet the deadline date provision, you may qualify for hardship consideration.
