Alaska Home Builders Laud Governor for Signing Contractor Licensing Bill into Law


WHO: Governor Bill Walker

WHAT: Bill signing for SB45, Licensing Exemptions: Contractors; Alcoholic Beverages WHEN: Friday, July 13, 1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. WHERE: Anchorage Home Builders Association, 8301 Schoon Street, Suite 200

(Anchorage) Governor Bill Walker will be signing SB45 into law this afternoon at the Anchorage Home Builders offices. This law requires an unlicensed “owner-builder” who lists or sells a new home within two years of starting construction to disclose they do not have a contractor’s license.

This is an important piece of legislation that ensure consumers are well-informed when making buying decision. Construction contractors are required to obtain a professional license with an option of a further endorsement for residential construction in Alaska. State licensing for contractors requires insurance and bonding which help to protect consumers.

The Alaska building community advocated and supported this legislation and is proud to see it signed into law.
