BILL NUMBER:S7360 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the education law, in relation to the practice of certified interior design; and repealing certain provisions of such law relating thereto PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: This bill would help New York certified interior designers, many of whom are small business owners, stay competitive with Interior designers In neighboring states by allowing them to use signing authority that they have under existing law to stamp and seal documents that are submitted to public officials. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section one of the bill establishes a new Section 8302 of the Education Law to provide an amendment allowing certified Interior designers to utilize current signing authority and obtain seal privileges prescribed by the State Board for Interior Design for all documents and instruments of service filed with public officials. In addition, Section one of the bill provides for a warning to be placed upon the stamped documents along with the seal and that it is a violation for anyone other than the Certified Interior Designer or someone acting under their direction to alter the seal.
