SB 991 — SS/SCS/SB 991 - This act modifies the registration of interior designers from the Division of Professional Registration with advice and recommendations by the Interior Design Council to the licensing of interior designers from the Missouri Board for Architects, Professional Engineers, Professional Land Surveyors, Professional Landscape Architects, and Licensed Interior Designers ("Board"). The Board shall increase from fifteen members to seventeen members with the two new members being licensed interior designers. The Interior Design Council and the Interior Design Council Fund shall be abolished upon the appointment by the Governor and confirmation by the Senate of the licensed interior designer members of the Board. The rules of the Interior Design Council shall be deemed adopted by the Board until revised, amended, or repealed, of which such action shall be taken on or before January 1, 2027. The funds in the Interior Design Council Fund shall be transferred to the State Board of Architects, Professional Engineers, Professional Land Surveyors, Professional Landscape Architects, and Licensed Interior Designers Fund. Additionally, this act defines the practice of licensed interior design and provides that a licensed interior designer shall undertake to perform licensed interior design services only when he or she is qualified by education, training, and experience in the specific technical areas involved. Furthermore, licensed interior designers shall be in responsible charge of interior design technical submissions that can affect the health, safety, and welfare of the public within their scope of practice. Licensed interior designers shall not take responsible charge over interior technical submissions prepared by another person unless the licensed interior designer actually exercises personal supervision and direct control over such interior technical submissions. This act modifies the educational and training requirements for licensed interior designers by repealing the qualification of at least three years of an interior design curriculum from an accredited institution with three years of experience. Additionally, an applicant shall be exempt from providing substantial evidence of certain educational and training qualifications if his or her curriculum or transcript has been approved by the Board. Nothing in this act shall be construed as precluding an architect from performing any of the services within the practice of licensed interior design. Current law provides that a renewal or reinstatement application for registration as an interior designer shall be accompanied by proof of completion of continuing education in the fields of either interior design or architecture. This act repeals such provision and provides that the Board shall establish the continuing education requirements for interior designers which shall be substantially equivalent to the continuing education requirements for architects. Finally, this act includes licensed interior designers in the definition of "design professional" for immunity from civil liability for participation in a peer review process. This act contains a delayed effective date for the repeal of the Interior Design Council and the Interior Design Fund, which shall become effective upon notification to the Revisor of the appointment of the interior designer members of the Board by the Director of the Division of Professional Regulation. This act is identical to provisions in the perfected SS/SB 895 (2026), HCS/SS/SB 1083 (2026), in the truly agreed to and finally passed HCS/SS#2/SB 1233 (2026), HCS/HB 2353 (2026), and is similar to provisions in SB 287 (2025), HB 566 (2025), SB 1325 (2024), and HB 2158 (2024).

SB 914 — SS/SB 914 - This act modifies provisions relating to sewage regulation. The act repeals a provision stating that a state standard for the location, size of sewage tanks and length of lateral lines is based on the percolation or permeability rate of the soil. Under the act, the state standard is based on soil properties. The act repeals a provision stating that soil tests are to be performed by persons who are qualified to perform the percolation tests and creates a new provision authorizing on-site soil evaluators registered by the Department of Health and Senior Services to conduct soils morphology evaluations. This act repeals a provision stating that contractors may be taught and allowed to perform percolation tests. The act repeals a provision relating to the Department of Health and Senior Services periodically reviewing any county and city regulation and enforcement record to ensure that the state standard for sewage regulation is being enforced. The act creates a mandatory registration program requiring continuing education before January 1, 2027, for on-site wastewater treatment system professionals qualified to perform percolation tests in accordance with the state standard as described in the act. Before January 1, 2027, the administrative authority may accept a percolation test at its own discretion if a soil morphology evaluation cannot be reasonably obtained. This provision shall be void and of no effect after December 31, 2026. Under the act, any person who intends to construct or make major modifications or repairs to an on-site sewage disposal system must submit an application fee and obtain a construction permit. The act repeals certain provisions relating to fees for repair of on-site sewage disposal systems. Under the act, the Department shall promulgate regulations establishing the conditions and requirements for the construction permit application, including the collection of reasonable fees set at a level to produce revenue not exceeding the cost and expense of administering the provisions under the act. The act is substantially similar to 2395 (2026), SB 601 (2025), a provision in the perfected HB 200 (2025), a provision in HCS/SS/SB 61 (2025), HB 2083 (2024), HB 814 (2023), and substantially similar to SB 1283 (2024), and SB 523 (2023).

Each master key box shall be installed at an appropriate location to permit law enforcement officers emergency access to each building and room on school grounds. The school district or charter school shall determine the precise location of each master key box after consultation with local law enforcement agencies, and shall provide local law enforcement agencies with a key or access code that permits access to the contents of the master key box. Each master key box shall contain certain items specified in the act, such as keys to each building and room on school grounds and accurate maps labeling access points, locations of critical emergency response aids, and the areas around each building. The contents of a master key box and the information contained therein shall not be a public record and shall not be made available for public examination.

SB 1729 — SB 1729 - Currently, a school district is required to give students the opportunity to take the ACT WorkKeys assessment required for the National Career Readiness Certificate ("WorkKeys"), at no cost to the student, only if the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education directs a state-funded census administration of the ACT assessment or if the school district funds the administration of the ACT assessment. Under this act, a school district shall administer college and career readiness assessments, including a career readiness assessment that leads to a nationally recognized work readiness certificate, in a manner and frequency prescribed by the State Board of Education.

A school district may offer additional college and career readiness assessments, at no cost to the student, by using funds appropriated by the General Assembly for such purpose. Additionally, each public institution of higher education may adopt and implement a policy to use a credential earned through WorkKeys as a transcribable credit toward the attainment of a postsecondary technical degree as recommended by the American Council on Education national guide.
