(A) All licenses issued under the provisions of this chapter, unless sooner suspended or revoked as herein provided, shall elapse and expire on December 31 of each year.
(B) The administrator shall, at least 30 days prior to such expiration date, notify each licensed contractor of such expiration. Such notice shall be given by mail addressed to each contractor’s last known address, and such notice shall enclose an application form for a renewal.
(C) An application for renewal of an existing license, on a form prescribed by the administrator, accompanied by a fee as provided for in this chapter, filed with the administrator prior to the expiration date, shall authorize operations as a contractor by such licensee until actual issuance of such renewal license for the ensuing year. All applications for renewal of licensee shall be filed with the administrator not later than December 31 of each year. Upon failure to so file, such licenses shall be renewed only upon the payment of double the regular renewal fee. Any licensee who fails to renew such a lapsed license within six months must thereafter apply for and receive a new license as provided herein before he or she may do business as a contractor.
