The Texas House has approved S.B. 283 with several amendments, including the elimination of a provision that would have required a landscape architect to be involved in any project related to public accommodation. This measure has been sent to the state Senate for concurrence with the amendments. The sunset cycle in Texas is every 12 years. The next analysis for landscape architects is scheduled for 2014. MONTGOMERY, Ala. ?EUR??,,????'??+ Alabama Governor Bob Riley has signed legislation to extend the state?EUR??,,????'???s licensure law for landscape architects until 2007.
