01:44 PM -- House Bill 06-1319

Representative Vigil, prime sponsor, presented House Bill 1319. He explained that the bill allows the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) to change the renewal dates for real estate appraisers licenses. Currently, real estate appraiser licenses are only valid until December 31 of the year they were issued. After the first renewal, licenses are valid until December 31 of the year in which they were issued. House Bill 1319 would remove the licensing renewal schedule for real estate appraisers from statute and require the director of the Division of Real Estate, to establish the schedule.

01:48 PM -- Debbie Campagnola, Director of the Division of Real Estate, DORA, came to the table to respond to committee questions about the current backlog of the system for the licenses. The committee asked about the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) checks taking 2 months. Ms. Campagnola clarified that only real estate brokers have to submit fingerprints for a background check. She added that DORA has met with CBI who is almost prepared with a system that can complete background checks in four days.
