The recent amendment to SB 751 modifies the provisions related to the types of buildings that architects must oversee according to the State Architectural and Licensed Interior Designers Act. Specifically, it adds detailed categories of building use—including institutional, residential (limited to specific housing types like dormitories), and various assembly buildings (like theaters and arenas)—which now fall under the Act's regulations. This change is significant because it clarifies which buildings require architectural oversight, ensuring improved safety and compliance with building standards.
