Re: Preparmion of l.and Plan's by Lands~..ape Architects.
Dear Ms. Student:
It has come to my attention that nurserymen in the Collier County area suggest that an exemption
fi.om tl~ requirements of licens~rc as landscape architects under chapter 481, part I1, Florida Statutes,
creates an entitlement to submit land plans at the county level. First, let mc review what is required
to obtain a ccrtificate'a,~ a nurseryman or nursery stock dealer under chapter 581, Florida Statutes.
Ccrtificati<)n as a nurscrym,'m or nursery stock dealer merely requires an application, payment of an
annual fee of $25. and an inspection of'the nursery mateai.al at the time application is made
Thc exemptkm for nurserymen From Ihe requirements of licensure as land.<~apc architects applies to
the preparation of plav,.s a~ an adjunct to the rn~'keting and sale of nursery product. The suggestion
that cournie~ mu~! elevate nurserymen ba~ed on this exemption and allow them to prepare land plans
ix ir~con'ec~ [m~dscape Arch3teets must demomtrme educational and practical skills and experience
prior to sirtin8 f'(~' a Ou'ee day examination and upon pas.,~ge are registered and regulated as
professionals by the State Board of l~and~=ape Architecture.
While nur~,-ryn'~n mc not prohibited from preparing plans, as an adjunct to thc marketing or sale of
their nursery product by the landscape architectural practice act; mere exemption from these
licensure requirements in no way constitutes authorization for nurserymen to prepare land plans in
any jurisdktion In short, a h~.al juri.~liction is free to establish land planning criteria which
recognize those professionals who can best uphold the community standard for land planning and
development.-
