Sen. Matt Klayman backs SB 246 to add interior designer registration and adjust board rules Sen. Matt Klayman said SB 246 responds to concerns that vetoed earlier legislation raised, preserves key statutory language, narrows exemptions, and keeps an 11-member board while creating a pathway to registration for interior designers; invited testimony from the state auditor, architects and the Alaska Professional Design Council supported the bill, and fiscal notes showed some first-year costs with projected revenue offsets. The committee set the bill aside.

Senator Matt Klayman’s new Senate Bill 246 aims to enhance safety in Alaska by introducing a registration system for qualified interior designers while addressing previous veto concerns.
