Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: The rule is being amended to clarify that
				  the managing agent to whom responsibility for the conduct of the corporation's
				  licensed activities is assigned must be licensed in the same profession for
				  which the Certificate of Authority is issued. This is compelled both by the
				  requirements of section
				  327.401,
				  RSMo, and by the prohibitions on unlicensed practice in Chapter 327, RSMo,
				  which prohibit a person licensed in one profession from supervising or engaging
				  in activities of another profession, except to the extent such activities are
				  incidental to the practice of the licensee's own profession.
(1) Pursuant to section
				327.401,
				RSMo, a corporation desiring a certificate of authority authorizing it to
				render architectural, professional engineering, professional land surveying, or
				professional landscape architectural services in this state shall submit an
				application to the executive director of the board, listing the names and
				addresses of all officers and directors for a corporation or all members and
				managers for a limited liability company, and listing the managing agent for
				each profession who is licensed in this state to practice architecture,
				engineering, land surveying, or landscape architecture.
(A) The directors of the corporation shall
				assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its architectural activities in
				this state to an architect licensed and authorized to practice architecture in
				this state.
(B) The directors of
				the corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its
				professional engineering activities in this state to a professional engineer
				licensed and authorized to practice professional engineering in this
				state.
(C) The directors of the
				corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its
				professional land surveying activities in this state to a professional land
				surveyor licensed and authorized to practice professional land surveying in
				this state.
(D) The directors of
				the corporation shall assign responsibility for the proper conduct of its
				professional landscape architectural activities in this state to a professional
				landscape architect licensed and authorized to practice professional landscape
				architecture in this state.
1. A corporation
				which is currently authorized by this board to provide professional landscape
				architectural services may continue to renew its certificate of authority under
				the rules that were in effect prior to December 31, 2019 so long as the
				managing agent listed in the corporation's application does not
				change.
2. If there is any change
				in the managing agent listed in the corporation's application, the provisions
				in this rule apply. The change shall be reported on a new form and submitted to
				the executive director of the board within thirty (30) days after the effective
				day of the change.
