Description

Under existing law, the Alabama Security Regulatory Board is responsible for the regulation and licensing of security officers, armed security officers, and contract security companies

This bill would provide further for the compensation of board members and would authorize the board to hold hearings, issue subpoenas, and administer oaths

This bill would authorize the board, by rule, to establish license and certification application fees, would limit the amount by which each fee could be increased per licensing period, and would authorize the board to impose reasonable late fees on late renewals

This bill would clarify that hearings held on appeals of decisions of the board be in accordance with the rules of the board and the Administrative Procedure Act

This bill would clarify the authority of the board to refuse to issue or renew a license or certification, place a licensee on probation, or suspend or revoke a license or certification for a violation of the licensing law or rule of the board

This bill would provide further for the obligations of a contract security company to the board relating to security officers and armed security officers employed by the company

This bill would require the board, by rule, to outline, define, and modify specific training requirements for applicants for original and renewal licensure or certification, or both, as a security officer or armed security officer

This bill would provide that any person who practices or offers to practice as a security officer or armed security officer in this state without a license or certification issued by the board is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor

Amendment 621 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, now appearing as Section 111.05 of the Official Recompilation of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, as amended, prohibits a general law whose purpose or effect would be to require a new or increased expenditure of local funds from becoming effective with regard to a local governmental entity without enactment by a 2/3 vote unless: it comes within one of a number of specified exceptions; it is approved by the affected entity; or the Legislature appropriates funds, or provides a local source of revenue, to the entity for the purpose

The purpose or effect of this bill would be to require a new or increased expenditure of local funds within the meaning of the amendment. However, the bill does not require approval of a local governmental entity or enactment by a 2/3 vote to become effective because it comes within one of the specified exceptions contained in the amendment
