Discussion on Status Of Legislation – H.B. 311
H.B. 311 was passed by the House and Senate and approximately one week later was signed by the Governor. The new law is now available on the Board’s website. Mr. Jennings will write an article for the AIA Delaware’s newsletter that will be a synopsis of the changes affecting current licensees and state that the Board now has the authority to take action against unlicensed individuals. Mr. Jennings and Mr. Weymouth will contact AIA to request that a copy of the AIA newsletter be sent to the Board of Architect members and its administrative specialist. Mr. Jennings will also draft a letter for mailing to licensees within the next six weeks that will advise licensees of the changes.
Report on Status of Joint Architecture and Engineer Advisory Committee – Ms. Bardol
Ms. Bardol advised that the DAPE will be meeting next week to sign their portion of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The Board of Architects still needs to select its public member. DAPE thought that the Board of Architects selecting a member would be a good idea. Ms. McCool has contacted a bank that was interested in having someone serve. Mr. French will be contacting that person and a few other banks to determine the level of interest and the background that would be brought to the group.
The Engineers are finding that the code officials are confused and frustrated. Engineers are becoming concerned regarding the credibility of the design profession. Ms. Bardol attended a workshop in Dover where several agenda items did not get done during a two hour meeting. Kent County enforcement is sending a lot of complaints to DAPE for all kinds of engineers sealing drawings. DAPE has invited the Board to participate in their informational seminar. DAPE is making a good faith effort in educating the public of how to notify them of any complaints. Ms. Bardol has asked Mr. Bill Holloway to attend the New Castle County June 14, 2006 informational seminar. Mr. Cobb advised that he may also attend. Any Board member interested in attending should let Ms. Bardol know and RSVP to DAPE.
The Board discussed the MOU. DAG Reardon has spoken with an attorney from DAPE regarding a minor change the attorney requested in the MOU. Both attorneys concurred. It is recommended that the Board not issue advisory opinions. Therefore, the wording in the MOU needs to be changed to state that they will provide assistance to the questions of code officials. Mr. Jennings made a motion, seconded by Ms. McCool, to adopt the change in the MOU. The motion was unanimously carried. Ms. Bardol will sign the MOU with the change. Once it has been signed by both groups, the Board’s administrative specialist will receive a photocopy to maintain in the Board’s records.
Report on Status of Rules and Regulations Subcommittee – Mr. French
Mr. French provided an update of the status of the Rules and Regulations Subcommittee He advised that at the next meeting, formal drafts will be available on rolling clock, the continuing education requirements, and the license expiration date on the seal of drawings. Mr. Cobb, Mr. Jennings, and DAG Reardon are researching the retired architect topic. The Subcommittee members will be looking into the design build law of other states to prepare for attending the national conference. The Subcommittee has decided that design build is more of a law than a regulation topic. Mr. Jennings is drafting a form for the Board to review that would be used when there is a change in the construction administration. The Subcommittee will not be meeting in July.
Complaint No. 07-03-05 – Hearing Rescheduled to July 19, 2006
The hearing regarding Complaint No. 07-03-05 has been rescheduled to July 19, 2006. A copy of the complaint will be provided to the Board members prior to the hearing.
Discussion on Sussex County Seal Requirements
DAG Reardon will explore whether state law presides over county law or home rule. Mr. French will check on the status of the County making changes to its rules and regulations.
Ms. Bardol asked if she could reorder the agenda to complete the Old Business items prior to the VTO presentation. Ms. Bardol was advised that the Board’s chair could reorder the agenda at any time. Mr. Weymouth questioned this. DAG Reardon explained that reordering the agenda was not changing the agenda. The Board has the authority to amend the agenda up to six hours prior to the meeting. The idea behind the deadline is to allow for public notification and to allow time for the public to respond.
Complaint No. 07-01-06 – Update on Status
The Board was advised that Complaint No. 07-01-06 has been referred to the Dept. of Justice for further action.
Discussion on Status of Joseph Zito Compliance
On April 6, 2006, Mr. Zito submitted a status report to the Board. He has provided the Board with a copy of his professional conduct course certificate. He has now requested an extension to complete the remaining continuing education hours due to health reasons. Mr. Jennings made a motion, seconded by Ms. Wooten, to grant Mr. Zito an extension until August 1, 2006, to complete the required course hours. Mr. Weymouth opposed the motion. The motion was carried with a majority.
Voluntary Treatment Option (VTO) Program Presentation by Deputy Director Kay Warren
Kay Warren, Deputy Director with the Division of Professional Regulation presented the Voluntary Treatment Option (VTO) program to the Board. This program provides an opportunity for regulated professionals to confidentially access professional help for their chemical dependency (alcohol or drugs) or impairment. The board designated Mr. Atchley as the board's VTO representative to help in the administration of this program. Program forms and information is available at dpr..
Following the presentation, Ms. Hopkins applauded Mr. Atchlely for volunteering to serve. The Board discussed that confidentiality was a key issue and that by having a public member represent the Board that there may be an increased comfort level because he may not know the professional member entering the program. Mr. Jennings will suggest to the Delaware AIA that they include an article in their newsletter. Ms. Wooten suggested that the brochures for the program be placed in locations where professionals would see them.
