Description

We look forward to you joining us and other industry professionals, including homebuilders, developers, contractors, and those supporting homebuilding, as we hear from government officials in the homebuilding space. Then, we'll gather at the state capitol to meet with lawmakers and government officials. The goal of the day is to educate policymakers on issues affecting the homebuilding sector, such as housing regulations, zoning laws, and permitting processes. Participants advocate for policies that support affordable housing, streamline regulatory hurdles, and promote economic growth within the industry, while also addressing key challenges such as labor shortages, material costs, and environmental compliance.
