The Honors & Nominations Committee celebrates the service and accomplishments of our members, firms, consultants, clients and other allied professionals in our local communities and works to perpetuate strong leadership of our Chapter. The committee acknowledges both the collective and individual efforts of those that go over and beyond to improve the built environment and our industry. Additionally, the group also helps to identify future leaders for both Committee Chair positions and the Chapter’s Board of Directors. We highly encourage and welcome nominations for both our award honorees and future leaders. Nominations are accepted on a rolling basis with the cycle for the current year closing on the second Friday in July.
