Chapter 379.
FEES AND LICENSE RENEWAL
22 TAC §379.1
The Texas State Board of Podiatric Medical Examiners adopts
on an emergency basis an amendment to §379.1, concerning Fees.
The board must adopt this on an emergency basis due to the fact that they
must raise the renewal fee to cover costs mandated by the 2002 - 2003 Appropriations
Bill. The bill states that we must raise additional revenue above and beyond
what we already collect in order to receive the funding. The renewal for the
Board begins in September and ends November 1st. We must have that increase
in effect in order to raise the needed revenue in fiscal year 2002.
The amendments are adopted on an emergency basis under Texas
Occupations Code, §202.151, which provides the Texas State Board of Podiatric
Medical Examiners with the authority to adopt reasonable or necessary rules
and bylaws consistent with the law regulating the practice of podiatry, the
law of this state, and the law of the United States to govern its proceedings
and activities, the regulation of the practice of podiatry and the enforcement
of the law regulating the practice of podiatry. This rule is also authorized
by and affects Texas Occupations Code §202.153 which authorizes the board
by rule to establish fees in amounts reasonable and necessary to cover the
cost of administering this chapter.

PROVISIONS OF THE REAL ESTATE LICENSE ACT
Subchapter E. REQUIREMENTS FOR LICENSURE
22 TAC §535.51
The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) adopts on an emergency
basis an amendment to §535.51, concerning requirements for a real estate
license. The amendment is necessary to implement House Bill 695, 77th Legislature
(2001) which is effective September 1, 2001. House Bill 695 alters the process
by which a person becomes licensed as a real estate salesperson. A sponsoring
broker will no longer be required in the original application, and all applications
must be for an inactive salesperson license. After an applicant has qualified
for an inactive license, the person may then enter the sponsorship of a broker
and engage in business. The amendment to §535.51 adopts by reference
revised application forms which may be used by a person seeking a license
as a real estate salesperson. The forms have been modified to remove the identification
and signature of a sponsoring broker. The amendment also deletes references
to a sponsoring broker where they appear in the section.
TREC has determined that adoption of the amendment on an emergency basis
is necessary to prevent confusion and disruption in the filing of applications
by prospective real estate salespersons and to prevent delays in licensing
persons to begin real estate brokerage work. If the new application forms
are not revised to be available for use on September 1, 2001, TREC would have
no appropriate application forms for use by salesperson applicants in compliance
with House Bill 695. TREC finds that these circumstances constitute an imminent
peril to the public welfare requiring adoption of the amendment on fewer than
30 days' notice. TREC also has proposed adoption of the amendment on a permanent
basis; the proposal appeared in the June 29, 2001, issue of the
Texas Register
(26 TexReg 4822).
The amendment is adopted on an emergency basis under Texas Civil
Statutes, Article 6573a, §5(h), which authorizes the Texas Real Estate
Commission to make and enforce all rules and regulations necessary for the
performance of its duties, and under the Texas Government Code, §2001.034,
which authorizes a state agency to adopt a rule on an emergency basis with
less than 30 days' notice in the event of an imminent peril to the public
health, safety, or welfare.
§535.51.General Requirements.
(a)
(No change.)
(b)
If the commission develops a system whereby a person may
electronically file an application for a license, a person who has previously
satisfied applicable education requirements and obtained an evaluation from
the commission also may apply for a license by accessing the commission's
Internet web site, entering the required information on the application form
and paying the appropriate fee in accordance with the instructions provided
at the site by the commission. Within 60 days after paying the fee, the applicant
must complete the application process by submitting a printed copy of the
application signed by the applicant [
