Event Details

Architects of Oregon are calling you to action!  AIA Oregon has proposed High Performance Building legislation that would require certain state buildings to meet Department of Energy adopted green building design standards and to be certified at the highest standard a 20-year life cycle cost analysis merits.

Leadership by Design is a half-day event in Salem to promote both this legislation and Oregon's leadership in sustainable, high-performance buildings.  AIA Oregon is organizing everything including bus transportation from Portland and Eugene, lunch, coaching and talking points for meeting with legislators.  Speakers will include Clark Brockman of SERA Architects, Dennis Wilde of Gerding Edlen Development Company, and David Van't Hof, Sustainability Advisor for Governor Kulongoski's Natural Resources Office.

We had record participation at the Capitol at our 2007 Leadership by Design event, and we are confident that - with your support - this is the year that we will pass this important legislation.

Join us at the State Capitol on Thursday, April 23rd to support this vital effort.  The economic and environmental future of Oregon will be shaped by all of us working together.
Your participation is critical!

We strongly encourage you to consider bringing an intern or architecture student with each of you to this event.  Your commitment to personally expose tomorrow's leaders of our profession to local advocacy efforts will open a huge window of opportunity.   People at all stages of their career can be a part of the AIA's advocacy process and affect positive change for a lifetime.
