House Bill 2548 amends provisions of the Health and Safety Code and the Occupations Code relating to the membership of certain advisory bodies to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) by adding two public members to the board of boiler rules and the Auctioneer Education Advisory Board; one public member to the Property Tax Consultants Advisory Council, the air conditioning and refrigeration contractors advisory board, and the Towing and Storage Advisory Board; and one public member and one member who represents a licensed public secondary or postsecondary beauty culture school to the Advisory Board on Cosmetology. The bill requires the presiding officer of the Texas Commission on Licensing and Regulation to appoint the public members of these advisory bodies to the TDLR not later than December 1, 2009. In addition, the bill increases from four-fifths to six-sevenths the vote of the Auctioneer Education Advisory Board that is required to remove a member of that board who is a licensed auctioneer appointed by the commission's presiding officer.
