§ 18-73. Voluntary inactive certificate.

A voluntary inactive certificate allows a contractor to maintain a county license while relinquishing the right to contract or pull Pasco County permits during the period the certificate is on voluntary inactive status. An active certificate becomes a voluntary inactive certificate in accordance with the following: The applicant files a written request with the building official to place his active certificate on voluntary inactive status and pays the requisite annual fees to maintain inactive status. Failure to pay the biannual inactive certificate fees will void the certificate, and will result in deletion of the certificate. A voluntary inactive certificate can be made active at any time, but the license holder must pay the required fees for an active certificate, which will not be offset or reduced by the fee paid for the voluntary inactive certificate. A voluntary inactive certificate must be made active within ten years or it will be deleted, and the applicant must reapply and fulfill all application requirements, including testing where applicable.
