Extending
the application of the current law provision to the uniformed services as well
as expanding the circumstances in which such a person may renew a license
without a penalty being charged would likely result in only a minimal revenue
loss for any state agency issuing licenses or certificates if members of the
uniformed services are currently charged late penalties for not completing
license or certificate renewal on time.

Under current law, a holder
of an expired license from any political subdivision or agency of the state to
practice a trade or profession whose license was not renewed because of the
holder's service in the Armed Forces of the United States must, within six
months of honorable discharge, be granted a renewal of that license at the
usual cost without penalty or re-examination if not otherwise disqualified
because of mental or physical disability.
The bill (1) expands this
provision so that it applies not only to members of the Armed Forces, but also
to those in service "in the uniformed services," which means the
Armed Forces; the Ohio Organized Militia when engaged in active duty for
training, inactive duty training, or full-time National Guard duty; the
Commissioned Corps of the Public Health Service; and any other category of
persons designated by the President of the United States in time of war or
emergency. The bill also (2) adds that
if a permit holder continues to serve in the uniformed services upon
expiration of the license, the permit holder must apply for a renewal not later
than 90 days after the completion of the service that interfered with the
renewal of the license or certificate.
Extending the application of
the current law provision to the uniformed services as well as expanding the
circumstances in which such a person may renew a license without a penalty
being charged would likely only result in a minimal revenue loss for any state
agency or political subdivision issuing licenses or certificates if members of
the uniformed services are currently charged late penalties for not completing
license or certificate renewal on time.
