Notice of Procedure  This notice explains the first steps a property owner must take before initiating a court action or arbitration against a contractor when the action is not filed with the CCB Dispute Resolution Services (DRS). It replaces the "Owner's Duty to Notify Contractor in the Event of a Construction Dispute".
