The sun is setting on the TRCC in Texas

After August 31, 2009, the Texas Residential Construction Commission will no longer be accepting any new inspection requests.

(AUSTIN) —At its June 11, 2009 meeting, the Texas Residential Construction
Commission announced a general timeline and action plan related to the
implementation of the State’s sunset provisions.

Under provisions of Texas Government Code 325.017, the commission will not be
accepting new inspection requests after August 31, 2009. In other action taken, the
commission approved the following:

• All new homes and projects completed by August 31, 2009 must be registered;

• All new builder registrations and timely renewal registration applications will be accepted through August 31, 2009

• All new builder registrations and timely renewal registration applications
  will be prorated, please see prorated chart here;

• Inspection requests will be accepted through August 31, 2009;

• Inspection requests will be scheduled for inspection as soon as possible following
  commission rules, policies and procedures; and

• Ombudsmen will actively process complaints and post-inspection actions through August 31, 2010.

Commission Chairman Paulo Flores of Dallas, said, “The commission felt it
necessary to implement a timeline regarding the state’s sunset
provisions. August 31, 2009 will be the last day that the commission
will receive new business, to ensure we have enough time to properly
assess and complete the casework.”
