Mo. Code Regs. tit. 20 § 2030-10.010

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 24, December 16, 2024
Section 20 CSR 2030-10.010 - Application for Certificate of Authority

PURPOSE: The rule is being amended to clarify that the managing agent to whom responsibility for the conduct of the corporation's licensed activities is assigned must be licensed in the same profession for which the Certificate of Authority is issued. This is compelled both by the requirements of section 327.401, RSMo, and by the prohibitions on unlicensed practice in Chapter 327, RSMo, which prohibit a person licensed in one profession from supervising or engaging in activities of another profession, except to the extent such activities are incidental to the practice of the licensee's own profession.

(1) Pursuant to section 327.401, RSMo, a corporation desiring a certificate of authority authorizing it to render architectural, professional engineering, professional land surveying, or professional landscape architectural services in this state shall submit an application to the executive director of the board, listing the names and addresses of all officers and directors for a corporation or all members and managers for a limited liability company, and listing the managing agent for each profession who is licensed in this state to practice architecture, engineering, land surveying, or landscape architecture.
(A) The directors of the corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its architectural activities in this state to an architect licensed and authorized to practice architecture in this state.
(B) The directors of the corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its professional engineering activities in this state to a professional engineer licensed and authorized to practice professional engineering in this state.
(C) The directors of the corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its professional land surveying activities in this state to a professional land surveyor licensed and authorized to practice professional land surveying in this state.
(D) The directors of the corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its professional landscape architectural activities in this state to a professional landscape architect licensed and authorized to practice professional landscape architecture in this state.
1. A corporation which is currently authorized by this board to provide professional landscape architectural services may continue to renew its certificate of authority under the rules that were in effect prior to December 31, 2019 so long as the managing agent listed in the corporation's application does not change.
2. If there is any change in the managing agent listed in the corporation's application, the provisions in this rule apply. The change shall be reported on a new form and submitted to the executive director of the board within thirty (30) days after the effective day of the change.
