Subject: AIA Virtual Advocacy Meeting on Thurs 3/15 - Topic: IGCC
Message:

This month's AIA Virtual Advocacy Meeting will be taking place this Thursday, March 15 at 4 PM EDT. This interactive meeting is open to all AIA members and leaders. This month, we will be discussing the upcoming publication of the International Green Construction Code, also known as the IGCC, with Joe Simonetta, Executive Director of AIA New Jersey.

On our call, Joe, a member of the IGCC Task Force, will talk about how the IGCC fits into the AIA's overall sustainability position, what the new code means, and most importantly, what it means to AIA components and members. From the component perspective, he will discuss some of the issues related to adoption of the code, as well as the tools and resources that the AIA is developing to assist AIA components and members in their efforts.

In addition to the IGCC discussion, we will also do a quick wrap-up of the recent AIA Grassroots Leadership & Legislative Conference and share some tools for follow-up, as well as discuss what is happening with the transportation bills making their way through Congress.

If you have any questions related to the IGCC, or on any AIA government relations issue, please feel free to email them to govaffs@aia.org prior to or during the call. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions on the call.
