Action:
Board for Barbers and Cosmetology Fee Adjustment
Action 6677
General Information
| Action Summary |
The Board for Barbers and Cosmetology (“the Board”) is amending its regulations to adjust license application, renewal, reinstatement, and other miscellaneous fees for the Board’s licenses and certifications.
The Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (“DPOR”) is funded almost entirely from revenue collected for fees associated with applications for license, renewal, examination, and other miscellaneous fees. DPOR does not receive general fund money. The Board must establish fees adequate to support the costs of the Board’s operations as well as a proportionate share of DPOR’s operations. It is expected that the Board will exhaust its cash reserve in fiscal year 2026.
DPOR is self-supporting and must collect adequate revenue to support its mandated and approved activities and operations. Fees must be established at amounts that will provide that revenue. A portion of fee revenue collected on behalf of the various boards is used to fund DPOR’s authorized special revenue appropriation. The Board has no other source of revenue from which to fund its operations.
