Top 10 NCHBA Actions to Help Our Members in 2011

 

The North Carolina Home Builders Association works diligently to protect the interests of the home building industry. To summarize our most important work in 2011, we have compiled a document entitled "Top 10 NCHBA Actions to Benefit Our Members in 2011." While it was difficult to narrow down the work NCHBA did in 2011 to just ten items, we feel these actions resulted in the biggest member benefit.

The attached document details each action and explains how it benefits you.  Here is a sneak peak at the Top 10:
1. Codified Compromise Victory on Energy Efficiency Mandates
2. Continued to Lead Effort to Make Solving the AD&C Credit Crisis NAHB's Number One Priority
3. Defended Challenges in the Supreme Court of North Carolina to APFO Victories in Lower Cort
4. Repealed Land Transfer Tax Referendum Authority
5. Led Business Coalition to Major Reform of Workers' Comp Laws
6. Led Business Coalition in Enactment of Sweeping Regulatory Reform Act
7. End Abuse of "Owner Exception" to General Contractor License
8. Secured Major Property Rights & Land Use Victories
9. Protected Members Lien Rights
10. Stopped or Amended Other Bad Bills & Ideas

NCHBA Quarterly Meetings
What are they? Why should you attend?

The North Carolina Home Builders Association holds four meetings each year, during which the NCHBA Committees and Board of Directors meet. The Quarterly Meetings are an opportunity for members from across the state to meet and discuss issues affecting the home building industry. The ideas, goals and plans discussed at the meetings help guide the future of the association and the industry. All members are invited to join a committee of their choice and sit in on the Board of Directors meetings. The Quarterly Meetings last one and a half days, with the NCHBA committees meeting on the first day and the Board of Directors meeting the next morning.
