#4 Dante Archangeli Appointed to Building Code Committee
Dante Archangeli, Tucson Artisan Builders, was appointed by the Tucson City Council to serve on the Tucson/Pima County Joint Consolidated Code Building Code Committee. 

The Consolidated Code Committee consists of regional building code officials and industry members responsible for reviewing and updating building codes every three years. The Committee also serves as the Board of Appeals regarding any of the City's building-related codes.

Dante’s vast experience as a local home builder will help protect against future code amendments which go beyond advancing public health and safety standards and unnecessarily increase the costs of home construction. Thank you Dante for your commitment to serving! 
#5 Advocating for Home Building- SAHBA Meets with OV Mayor
SAHBA members recently met with Oro Valley Mayor Joe Winfield to discuss impact fees, current building permit activity and potential architectural design review requirements for custom homes. 

These quarterly discussions with the Mayor allow for SAHBA to provide its perspective on issues impacting the industry in the Town. Sharing first-hand perspective or experiences of SAHBA members with elected officials in advance of public policy decisions helps create more reasonable and sound public policies impacting home building.  We appreciate the Mayor’s continued willingness to meet with SAHBA and discuss issues of mutual interest.
