Building Membership Council issues subcommittees call

To help advance the visions and goals of its subcommittees, the International Code Council’s Building Membership Council announced that the following subcommittee membership opportunities are now available:

Raise The Profile (RTP) Subcommittee

Chaired by Ed Lisinski, this subcommittee works to find ways to recognize the efforts building officials put forth every day and ensures that the difference made in the built environment is appreciated, emulated, supported and promoted to help make the building official a desired and destination profession. The subcommittee actively promotes Building Safety Month to schools, contractor groups and policymakers; coordinates subject matter and authors for the Building Membership Council Tips (formerly Tip of the Quarter); and encourages active participation in the code development process.

Community Building Best Practices & Innovation (CBBPI) Subcommittee

Chaired by Mike Nugent, this subcommittee works to capture, categorize, analyze and track best practices and innovative ideas from other Membership Councils, building safety professionals or building safety departments. These may be procedures that make services better, a process that provides a better level of safety, or an approach that improves the image of our profession. This subcommittee will contribute in the review for the annual Award for Innovation in Code Administration and work closely with the Major Jurisdiction Committee on their Best Practices webpage.

Continuity & Outreach (C&O) Subcommittee

Chaired by Chris Young, this subcommittee works in conjunction with the other Membership Councils established by the ICC Board of Directors to ensure that efforts to enhance the interests of the entirety of the ICC membership are fostered by collaboration and cooperation. The membership of this subcommittee is limited to appointed liaisons from each Membership Council and the Major Jurisdiction Committee however, all meetings of this subcommittee are open to all members and are posted on the Building Membership Council webpage.

Through the work of the three subcommittees, the Building Membership Council attempts to accomplish its mission. We encourage you to be a more active professional and more dedicated public servant by expanding our “Outreach”, sharing our “Best Practices”, and through your efforts “Raise the Profile” of our outstanding building safety professionals across the globe.
