Virginia Board for Asbestos, Lead, and Home Inspectors; licensing of home inspectors. Provides that beginning July 1, 2017, home inspectors must be licensed by the Virginia Board for Asbestos, Lead, and Home Inspectors (the Board). Currently, home inspectors must be certified. The bill requires the Board to promulgate regulations to implement the provisions of the bill effective no later than July 1, 2017, and exempts the Board's initial adoption of such regulations from the Administrative Process Act (§ 2.2-4000 et seq.), with the exception that the Board must provide an opportunity for public comment prior to adoption. The bill contains a technical amendment. This bill is identical to HB 741.
