HB 2091: registrar of contractors agency; continuation 
Sponsor: Representative Hendrix, LD 14 
Committee on Regulatory Affairs 
Overview 
Continues the Registrar of Contractors (ROC) for 8 years. 
History 
Established in 1931, ROC licenses and regulates residential and commercial contractors, 
investigates complaints against contractors, is authorized to suspend or revoke licenses, 
conduct hearings, issue citations and assess civil penalties. ROC's daily operations are 
overseen by the Governor appointed Registrar. ROC is a 90/10 agency that deposits 90% of 
its collected revenues into the ROC Fund for administrative expenses and 10% into the state 
General Fund. 
The Residential Contractors' Recovery Fund is administered by ROC for the benefit of 
claimants damaged by an act, representation, transaction or conduct of a licensed registered 
contractor that is in violation of statutory rules or regulations relating to contractors (Title 
32, Chapter 10, A.R.S.). 
ROC is set to terminate on July 1, 2024 (A.R.S. § 41-304.04). The House of Representatives 
Commerce Committee of Reference (COR) met on January 16, 2024, to conduct a sunset 
review of ROC and recommended that the ROC be continued for 8 years.
