NEW BUSINESS
Sunset Review Process
Ms. Trust spoke about the sunset review process which will begin around this time next year for the Board of Certified Interior Designers. One issue that has been recurring in the reviews of other design boards is the continuation of special funding. Ms. Trust noted that due to efforts by outside organizations the special fund legislation in 2008 included another five-year cap. Ms. Trust stated that the design boards are fiscally responsible and special funding should be made permanent.
OLD BUSINESS
Four-Year Interior Design Degree Program
The Board briefly discussed the effort to develop a four-year interior design degree program at a Maryland education institution. Ms. Portnoy asked why the effort was not successful in the past. Ms. Gordy replied that they were ready to go forward but due to the economic downturn, it was dropped.
Letter from Sally Layman
Ms. Trust wrote a response letter to Ms. Sally Layman regarding clarification of the law as far as the request for a permit for a commercial interior alteration with no change in structural integrity. Ms. Trust stated that the project clearly needed an Architect and that Howard County was correct in requiring an architect’s seal. Ms. Layman wrote Ms. Gordy and thanked her for the response.
CEU AUDIT REPORT
Ms. Edwards reported to the Board on the CE audit online program which randomly selects individuals when they renew online. As of this date, three have been audited and only one has responded timely. Ms. Edwards asked the Board if they would like to review the responses or would they prefer staff do the review and only bring issues to the Board as needed. The Board agreed that staff can review.
The other issue is how to deal with those who do not respond to the audit. Ms. Trust noted that the Board does not have regulations dealing with failure to respond to the Board’s communication. The Board agreed that they would like to propose regulations to that effect. Motion (II) was made by Ms. Pirrung, seconded by Ms. Portnoy and unanimously carried to propose regulations to make it a violation of the code of ethics to fail to respond to a communication from the Board.
