A subcontractor names one person as both its financially responsible officer and its primary qualifying agent. Is that permitted?
Correct Answer
D) No; a financially responsible officer may not be designated as the primary qualifying agent
Section 489.1195(1)(b): a financially responsible officer "shall be responsible for all financial aspects of the business organization and may not be designated as the primary qualifying agent." The two roles are kept apart deliberately, and (1)(c) keeps the primary qualifying agent responsible for all construction activities even where a financially responsible officer is in place.
