in effect

Ind. Code § 25-23.7-5-1 Licensing requirement; political subdivision's powers; licensing exemptions

Sec. 1. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b), an individual may not install a manufactured home without first obtaining from the board a license authorizing the individual to install a manufactured home. A political subdivision may not require a licensee to submit to any other form of licensing except for that required by a political subdivision for onsite electrical, plumbing, or mechanical systems installation. However, this article does not limit the power of a political subdivision to regulate the quality and character of work performed by a licensee through the enforcement of building codes or conducting inspections. (b) An individual acting at all times at the direction and under the supervision of a licensed installer need not be licensed in order to install a manufactured home. A licensee is fully responsible for all installation work performed under the licensee's direction or supervision. (c) This section does not prohibit: (1) a manufactured housing community owner; (2) a manufactured housing community manager; or (3) the employees of a person described in subdivision (1) or (2); from providing maintenance to an installation if that maintenance does not otherwise require a license by a political subdivision for onsite electrical, plumbing, or mechanical systems installation. As added by P.L.162-2002, SEC.7.
