[CLC-Discussion] Question re: Change of Contractor on Permit - when new Contractor is not yet selected

[leslie.tomczak at akerman.com]

Question:


·         The GC on a residential construction project (owned by a Trust entity) is being terminated midway through construction.

·         Work has stopped and will remain that way until a new GC is retained.

·         Owner is in the process of hiring a new GC, but we are a few weeks off from the replacement GC being selected.

·         Old GC wants its name off the permit now (before new GC is selected and can be named as the new qualifier on the job).

·         What to do?  Can the Trust be listed on the Change of Contractor form in the interim?

Let me know if anyone has experience with this procedure.  Thanks in advance.
