22 TAC §153.22
The Texas Appraiser Licensing and Certification Board adopts
new §153.22, License Holder's Responsibility to the Board. The rule was
adopted with changes to the proposed text (to correct a typographical error)
as published in the April 16, 1999, issue of the
Texas Register
(24 TexReg 3018).
New §153.22 is being adopted to clarify that all licensees are subject
to all provisions of the Act; that all licensees and those applying for renewals,
must respond to inquiries of the Board within 20 days; and must comply with
final actions and orders of the board or be subject to disciplinary action.
One written comment was received. The Foundation Appraisers Coalition of
Texas (FACT) wrote to support the proposed new rule. The Board adopted the
new rule as proposed with a change to correct a typographical error.
The new section is adopted under the Powers and Duties of the
Board, Texas Appraiser Licensing and Certification Act, §5 (Texas Civil
Statutes, Article 6573a.2), which provides the board with authority to adopt
rules.
§153.22. License Holder's Responsibility to the Board.
(a)
A certified or licensed appraiser or appraiser trainee
or applicant for renewal is subject to all provisions of the Act and board
rules and shall, within 20 days of notice to said individual's address of
record, unless granted a written extension by the board, answer all inquiries
concerning matters under the jurisdiction of the board, and shall fully comply
with final decisions and orders of the board.
(b)
Failure to comply with this section constitutes a separate
violation of §153.20(a)(2) of this title (relating to Guidelines for
Revocation, Suspension or Denial of Licensure or Certification).
This agency hereby certifies that the adoption has been reviewed
by legal counsel and found to be a valid exercise of the agency's legal authority.
