Architects, engineers, surveyors, landscape architects, geoscientists, and interior designer board member and licensing requirements modifications

This bill modifies licensing and board membership requirements for architects, engineers, surveyors, landscape architects, geoscientists, and interior designers in Minnesota. It reduces the required professional experience for board members from 10 to 5 years, clarifies that all board members must be state residents, and updates rules for temporary military licenses (setting the fee to $0). The changes apply directly to licensed professionals seeking or maintaining credentials and the state boards that oversee their licensing. The bill focuses on administrative adjustments to licensing processes without creating new programs or altering core practice standards.
