DENA MARKS:  Good morning.  My name is  
Dena Marks, and I am an analyst for the Bureau of  
Professional Licensing in the Department of Licensing and  
Regulatory Affairs, and I will be conducting the hearing  
today.  
This is a public hearing on the proposed  
administrative rules entitled "Barbers - General Rules."  
We are conducting the hearing as required by the  
Administrative Procedures Act to allow the public to  
comment on the proposed changes to this rule set.  As  
with all other public hearings on draft rule sets, the  
only items discussed during this hearing will be the  
proposed changes to the rule set.  This hearing will not  
be covering any questions or discussions on any other  
issues.  
We are calling this hearing to order at  
11:00 a.m. on August 3, 2021.  The notice of public  
hearing was published in newspapers of general  
circulation, the Grand Rapids Press and Flint Journal on  
July 15, 2021, the Mining Journal on July 14, 2021, as  
well as the Michigan Register, Issue No. 13-2021,

have suggested changes to the proposed rules, please  
include the specific reasons why the changes would be in  
the public interest.  
Please note, if you have already  
submitted comments to the Department in writing or by  
e-mail, those comments will be considered in the same  
manner as those comments made during the public hearing  
today.  
For those making comments today, please
