From the President Man how time flies!! Yes a year has come and gone. Get ready for a new president, and new board members here at NTHBA starting October 6th. As the President, I had a few items that I wanted to concentrate on.
Special Thanks to our 2016 NTHBA Partners: Diamond Atmos Energy
1) Was keeping the organization in the black. Thanks to the Budget & By-laws committee members for their help, also to all the members for being a part of this effort. 2) Making sure NTHBA had a good relationship with the City, and stay involve with the code enforcement department. NTHBA had many of our members work with the City in different capacities, and on different boards within the City. Thanks to all. 3) Stay in touch with the Texas Association of Builders. We have had outstanding attendance during the TAB meetings this year. The 2016 Parade of Homes went well. Even with a schedule change, and a little rain we met our goals. Thanks to the POH committee, and everyone else that made this event a success. The Young Professionals have had a great year and are planning a clay shoot for October 14th. The Christmas party will be a big hit this year. Please plan to attend. It is scheduled for December 1st. The monthly lunch meetings have been outstanding. Again thanks to everyone for your assistance and support. The 2015 International Energy Conservation Code went into effect on September 1st. All the builders should have update information on this code, and what the City is sending to the city council. Again many thanks to the folks that have helped with this change, and also thanks to Bobby Teague with the City for allowing NTHBA to have some input. Continues on page 3
