Section 20-338. - License as contractor and journeyman. Valid throughout state.

The Department of Consumer Protection shall issue a separate license to persons qualified to engage in work as contractors and as journeymen.

(February, 1965, P.A. 493, S. 12; 1967, P.A. 789, S. 10; P.A. 81-361, S. 27, 39; June 30 Sp. Sess. P.A. 03-6, S. 146(d); P.A. 04-169, S. 17; 04-189, S. 1.)
History: 1967 act rephrased previous provision, referring to “a separate license” rather than to “separate licenses” and added provision clarifying rights conferred by license; P.A. 81-361 amended section to provide for issuance of licenses by department instead of boards as of July 1, 1981; June 30 Sp. Sess. P.A. 03-6 and P.A. 04-169 replaced Department of Consumer Protection with Department of Agriculture and Consumer Protection, effective July 1, 2004; P.A. 04-189 repealed Sec. 146 of June 30 Sp. Sess. P.A. 03-6, thereby reversing the merger of the Departments of Agriculture and Consumer Protection, effective June 1, 2004.
If plaintiff is properly licensed by state, defendant city must grant him a work permit to do plumbing within its limits. 26 CS 329.
