Recap: Home Builders Association of Kentucky (HBAK) Winter Board Meeting The HBAK W inter Board meetings were held February 17 - 19 in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The full day of meetings on the 18th was capped off with a visit to the Corvette Museum that featured guest speaker, Senator Rand Paul, the association's annual awards and installation of its 2016 Officers. A big congratulations go out to WatsonJones, C.K. Ash Insurance, who won the association's Gilbert Kittle Honored Associate Award, and Jim Cutter, Cutter Construction, who won the association's Builder Achievement Award. We are very proud of our local members who go on to further serve our state association.

lengthy discussion of Building Code issues featured an update of the existing code. Your fellow members are working to include more drawings into the code to better simplify the

interpretation process and to help builders follow the complex code. All code officials were encouraged to participate on the International

Code Council (ICC) online voting process. We believe this process will allow for better, more representative, outcomes and should reduce the influence special interests have on adopting updates in the building code that result in the sale of their products. A voting guide was sent out to building officials as the vote was taken between February 8-21. The Executive Officers from around the state met to discuss issues facing their respective associations and how what they do can benefit their members more. Topics ranged from an open discussion from NAHB Region C Field Representatives, workforce development and what your HBA and the HBA of Lexington are doing to solve the problem through our Building Institutes, association management issues, the upcoming MS4 Statewide Stormwater Permit, legislative visits with our Congresspersons and U.S. Senators, and planning future EOC meetings.

Commercial Council Expands Voice of NKY's Building Industry ByStacySmithRogers

With the recent addition of HBANKY's Commercial Council, the association's voice has expanded to include representation of commercial building interests, bringing together companies who help bring in jobs and businesses that will keep Northern Kentucky a vibrant place to live and work. The Commercial Council is a natural fit for the association to address complex issues affecting the development of commercial and industrial properties throughout Northern Kentucky. Many issues that home builders face are also road blocks for commercial developers, especially with regard to land development and smart growth. Working together will allow HBANKY to generate an increased awareness of those issues and to exert a collaborative effort to improve the building process and keep the community a competitive marketplace. Building a Community and Bringing In Jobs Commercial builders and developers are unique because the clients they attract are unique. Just as home builders rely on trusted industry professionals to provide products to build their homes, commercial builders rely on local people and services to outfit their buildings to meet their clients' needs. However, each client has different needs. Some might require advanced technologies to build equipment or a workforce with unique skills or access to specific transportation mediums. Commercial developers in Northern Kentucky sell not only the buildings, but they help market the region that employs uniquely skilled workers and products that support new businesses.

Northern Kentucky BUILDER 412016

"Northern Kentucky has the benefit of not having to go outside our territory to find skilled labor, but what many people don't realize is that we have robust, skilled manufacturing businesses that support the industries coming in." - Shad Sletto "Everyone knows we have a huge manufacturing industry, but I think most people don't realize the level of complex, high tech work that goes on in our community. That's a true benefit to working in the region;' Shad Sletto, EGC Construction Corporation, emphasized. He explained the importance of having a dynamic manufacturing base to support other

industries coming in to Northern Kentucky. "As commercial builders, we build facilities for large companies and they're all different. We have to work with each of those companies on creating space for their specific needs, so we interact with a variety of manufacturers that provide services our clients need to produce their own products or services. Our clients' needs tie us into this vibrant manufacturing industry. Northern Kentucky has the benefit of not having to go outside our territory to find skilled labor, but what many people don't realize is that we have robust, skilled manufacturing businesses that support the industries coming in," he said, noting that a big selling point for commercial developers is the fact that potential businesses can find the products and people they need right here without having to ship equipment or supplies in.

Sletto emphasized the fact that manufacturers play an important role in the commercial building industry, and when obstacles prevent the commercial building industry from moving forward, it doesn't just make an impact on building, it has a trickle down effect that makes a difference for the whole community. Stream mitigation fees are a good example that Sletto used in an analogy. "Not only are the fees over the top, but the process is frustrating. It's like going to the store and wanting to buy a pair of nice shoes, but before you can buy those shoes, you have to pay a tax. However, you'll have to wait a year before they fit your foot and the cost is $470 per linear foot," he explained. Sletto emphasized how that makes it hard to sell to clients who are comparing building a business in Northern Kentucky with other competing markets. top-of-mind when encountering future buyers. In a perfect world, he or she will show up on your doorstep with a happy couple ready to sign a contract to build their dream home. In the real world, he or she might connect with you on how to partner together to market your product and save you the headache of finding interested buyers and let you focus on what you do best - building homes. Parbtershlp Is a Benefit for All Members John Curtin, Paul Hemmer Company, noted the value that partnering with HBANKY has for the commercial building community. "W hen the association was working on zoning ordinances in Boone County, I attended a number of those meetings and realized that the HBA had a strong voice throughout the community and state and could get things done. Working with the association is an outstanding way for commercial builders to be heard." Curtin said he's been impressed by the association and it's outreach. "The more I got involved, the more I realized they have an impact on getting things done. They asked me if I would be a member on the Board, representing the commercial building industry. I've been very impressed with how the HBA has come together and resolved important issues," he explained. Curtin said that commercial builders in Northern Kentucky are seeing increased activity. "Coming out of the recession, there was a pent up demand for new spec distribution buildings to be built. Business is definitely picking up again," he offered, reporting that Hemmer has been

involved recently in building a near 900,000 square foot facility that was immediately rented out when they broke ground. The company is working on another 650,000 square foot facility that's rented as well and more prospects are in the pipeline.

"When the association was working on zoning ordinances in Boone County, I attended a number of those meetings and realized that the HBA had a strong voice throughout the community and state and could get things done. Working with the association is an outstanding way for commercial builders to be heard." -john Curtin

Like Sletto, Curtin cited stream mitigation fees as one of the major challenges commercial builders are currently facing. "The mitigation costs are skyrocketing, adding layers of costs to each project and stunting growth," he said, emphasizing the importance of the commercial building industry in partnering with the Council. "Our goal is to engage more commercial contractors to join the association. There's strength in numbers and it's a great voice for our industry. In Northern Kentucky, there are a lot of hills and streams, whereas in Indianapolis it's mostly flat. If you have a company or homeowner who wants to build and realizes all the fees associated with it, they're not going to come here." President Vice Executive HBANKY Brian Miller explained the association had been working with commercial building representatives for over a year before officially forming the Council. "We had actually been talking to them since 2009, but in 2014 we made a concerted effort to make it official. It's a task-oriented structure, so we don't hold regular meetings. When issues arise, we simply send an email or pick up the phone to pull together," he explained. Miller said the association is currently representing the Commercial Council by working with NKU on addressing the stream restoration mitigation fees. In addition, the focus is on working with SD 1 and growth and environmental issues that

affect both home building and the commercial building industry. "We've taken a hard look at the incentives and disincentives to growth in each of the cities in Northern Kentucky and we're now in the process of getting that data out. W hat we found, among many things, is that Kenton County's growth is slowing in comparison to Boone and Campbell Counties'. We've identified areas for economic growth and the infrastructure required to support an industrial base and have proposed a set of recommendations. We're determined to demonstrate the big picture of the economy and how development plays a role in improving the community."

"Our Commercial Council is comprised of some of the major economic drivers in the community. So, when we walk into a meeting with their support, people notice. Our impact is stronger. We're now basically advocating for everybody who moves dirt and puts stuff on it." - Brian Miller

Miller emphasized that the Council is a great benefit not only for the commercial members but for the entire membership base. "Our Commercial Council is comprised of some of the major economic drivers in the community. So, when we walk into a meeting with their support, people notice. Our impact is stronger. We're now basically advocating for everybody who moves dirt and puts stuff on it," he explained. Miller emphasized that the Council also makes a difference within the association's advocacy efforts. "We truly offer consolidated advocacy services from one entity that's a warehouse of knowledge and can make real change happen. Nobody lobbies locally like a builder association. No one else is driving to Frankfort to get things done." Miller added that the goal is to attract more members to the Council and to encourage those who are already a part of it to take advantage of the events and benefits offered through HBANKY.
