RULE §3.65Annual Renewal Procedure

(a) The Board shall send via email an annual registration renewal notice to each Landscape Architect. A Landscape Architect must notify the Board in writing (email, fax, on the Board's Web site, or by U.S. mail) each time the Landscape Architect's email address or mailing address of record changes. The written notice of the Landscape Architect's change of address must be submitted to the Board within thirty (30) days after the effective date of the change of address.

(b) A Landscape Architect may renew his/her registration prior to its specified annual expiration date by:

  (1) remitting the correct fee to the Board; and

  (2) providing the information and documentation requested by the annual registration renewal notice.

(c) If a Landscape Architect fails to remit a completed registration renewal form and the prescribed fee on or before the specified expiration date of the Landscape Architect's registration, the Board shall impose a late payment penalty that must be paid before the Landscape Architect's registration may be renewed.

(d) If the Board receives official notice that a Landscape Architect has failed to pay court ordered child support, the Board may be prohibited from renewing the Landscape Architect's registration.

(e) If a registration is not renewed within 2 years after the specified registration expiration date, the registration shall be cancelled by operation of law on the two-year anniversary of its expiration without an opportunity for a formal hearing. If a registration is cancelled pursuant to this subsection, the registration may not be reinstated.
