The position of Building Official carries an enormous responsibility, ensuring that the buildings in which people live, work and play are constructed safely. Founded in 1956, the OBOA is a self-governing, not-for-profit professional association for Building Officials in the Province of Ontario. We are committed to maintaining the highest degree of professionalism in the field of building code enforcement and building safety; while promoting uniform code interpretation and enforcement, through training and education services, and related committee work. This association represents over 2200 members and strives to represent these professionals as well as being committed to maintaining the highest degree of professionalism.
This Board works diligently at representing the membership and promoting these ideals. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve. I recognize the trust that has been placed in me and am excited about serving this Board, and our membership as a whole. I look forward to the challenges that this position has to offer and the growth that it will foster.
In my first year as a member of the Board, I was assigned the portfolios of the Code Review Committee and the Rural Affairs Committee. As the second year of my first term begins, I have been given the responsibility of overseeing the Certification and Maintenance Committees in addition to the previous two. I welcome the addition of Steve Murphy to our Board and pass the Code Review Committee and Bulletin Board Moderator to his capable hands. This will better allow me to concentrate on revamping our Certification process.
These committees are set up to represent the members. If there are any questions, comments or concerns that you may have in these areas (or any other for that matter), please feel free to contact me. I look forward to serving you, the membership.
