§ 22-62. Expiration and renewal.

(a)

Certificates shall expire annually at 12:00 midnight on June 30. Failure to renew the certificate during June shall cause the certificate to become inoperative, and it is unlawful thereafter for any person to engage or offer to engage or hold himself out as engaging in contracting under the certificate unless the certificate is restored or reissued.

(b)

A certificate which is inoperative because of failure to renew shall be restored on payment of the proper renewal fee, if the application for restoration is made within two years after June 30. If the application for restoration is not made within the two-year period, the fee for restoration shall be equal to the original application fee; and, in addition, the board may require reexamination of the applicant.

(c)

A person who holds a valid certificate from the board may go on inactive status during which time he shall not engage in contracting but may retain his certificate on an inactive basis on payment of an annual renewal fee during the inactive period in the amount established by resolution.
