Join the SWFL PHCC and MACCA as we host a panel discussion on a topic that affects the construction industry on many levels.

• Information on the current state of unlicensed contractor activity in each county/city.
• An overview of current activities each county/city is employing to curb unlicensed contractor activity.
• Future plans for addressing this issue and how our members can help.
• There are protocols in each county/city for reporting unlicensed contractors. What information is needed to file a report?
• Legal requirements for licensed contractors (i.e.; license # on vehicles, etc.)

We have partnered with MACCA on this event to expand the reach of this educational program and assist their members on this topic.
