The Florida Board of Professional Engineers’ Rules Committee will meet via Zoom at 1 p.m. Tuesday, May 5, 2026. Among the topics of discussion will be two proposed rule updates currently in development and a review of public comments on those changes.
The two rules to be discussed are:
- Chapter 61G15-35, Threshold Building Inspections: The Board is considering a new Special Inspector category focused on existing threshold buildings and updates to Chapter 61G15-35, Florida Administrative Code, to reflect the higher expertise and judgment these inspections require. Complete details: Board Considers Expanding Special Inspector Categories
- Chapter 61G15-38, Damaged Structures: The proposed Chapter 61G15-38, F.A.C., would establish clearer Rules of Responsibilities for engineers for assessments and reports on storm-damaged existing buildings, including general evaluation requirements and component-specific technical criteria.
