Summary

The proposal defines "home improvement" and "land improvement" and makes it illegal for anyone to knowingly defraud a homeowner or landowner on contracts of $1,000 or more (or $2,500 in total). It sets penalties, requires notification of the Attorney General, places convicted parties on a public registry, and bars them from state grants or contracts for up to three years. The measure also limits how convicted contractors can work again unless they post a large bond or credit letter.
