PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT

Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board-Licensure Fees

The purpose of the stakeholder group is to formulate a proposal on how to streamline the application renewal process and ways to make the process more user-friendly to small businesses and sole proprietors. Recently, the Board adopted a rule to relieve the burden of sitting for examination from a grandfathered licensee whose license(s) has lapsed for more than 60 days. The stakeholder group will meet to formulate ideas to continue to help small businesses and sole proprietors. Newly appointed members to the Stakeholder group are as follows:

Brian DeJong - Iowa Geothermal Assoc.

Jason Rabe - Rabe Hardware

Richard Farrell Jr. - ABC of Iowa

Andy Roberts - Local 33

Dan Dolan - Sole proprietor

Sue Pleva - Government rep.

Al Schouten - Small business

Mark Werner - Contractor

Beginning November 1, 2012, the Iowa Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board began issuing contractor licenses for professionals in the plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration and hydronics trades. This requirement implements changes made by the General Assembly to Iowa Code chapter 105 in 2009. These changes are intended to establish public liability insurance and surety bonds for plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration and hydronics contractors working within the state of Iowa.
