Bob Siemsen, IAPMO President |
It is my great pleasure as president of this esteemed organization to once again invite and welcome you to IAPMO's 81st Annual Education and Business Conference in Seattle, Washington. Your attendance is not only a tremendous opportunity to learn and network with your industry peers and fellow IAPMO members, but provides you with a voice and a vote in reshaping the Uniform Codes for the benefit of millions of Americans.
And what opportunity attendees will have in that regard! At the Assembly Consideration Session scheduled for this year's conference, IAPMO members will vote on arguably the most substantive changes to the Uniform Codes since the ANSI-accredited code development process began in 2001. If you care deeply or have a stake in the advancement of the Uniform Plumbing Code and Uniform Mechanical Code — and frankly who doesn't? — these are meetings you do not want to miss.
In addition to the important business of code development, this year's conference, of course, offers more top-notch educational opportunities, led by the best instructors our industry has to offer — IAPMO instructors. From code review seminars to enlightening presentations and discussions on the most pressing issues of the day, opportunities to advance your understanding of our industry abound.
IAPMO lost a valuable champion of sustainable building practices last year with the far-too-early passing of Joseph Kneidinger, a senior plumbing inspector for the City of Portland, Oregon, who dedicated his professional and personal life to the advancement of sustainable and renewable principles. To honor Joseph and ensure his legacy, IAPMO has renamed our annual award honoring the contractor who most embodies the advancement of sustainable practices the Joseph Kneidinger Green Contractor of the Year Award. This honor will be bestowed upon a deserving recipient along with our other annual awards at this year's conference.
Please join us as we work to advance the Uniform Codes into a new decade of safe, healthy plumbing and mechanical systems for all!
