I have just returned from the large states meeting in Chicago this weekend.
Many topics were discussed but the member realignment including core service plan implementation continued to be at the top of the list.
In Michigan we will again be discussing this at our annual meeting on October 16th. I encourage you to attend to hear the latest updates.
Some of the changes the AIA Michigan board is proposing were outlined in an election ballot you should have received.
Please remember to vote online or return the paper ballot by October 12th. You may also vote at the Annual Meeting. We look forward to hearing from you.
Please check out the AIA Michigan calendar for upcoming events and don't forget to make sure you have your continuing education requirements for the year!
Have a great week and remember to
contact me
anytime with your ideas or if you would like to join a committee!

Government Affairs Committee: Note to Firms offering Architect Services
The following important language is from the State of Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs regarding Professional Licensing for Architects in Michigan. It is relatively new and can be found on the State's Website, and
we encourage all Michigan Architects to follow through
immediately as noted:
Firms Offering Architect Services
In order to obtain approval from the Department under MCL 339.2010(2) please send an email to BPLHelp@michigan.gov that contains the following:
* Name of the firm seeking approval
* Address of the firm
* Name of the person submitting the request
* A certification stating the following:
"2/3 of the principals of <<YOUR FIRM NAME>> are licensed under Article 20 of the Occupational Code and the conduct of the firm and its principals complies with the law and rules promulgated by the Department."
Design Perspectives
Over the course of the last year, AIA Michigan members have begun to produce articles that have a point of view about matters of interest to our many communities. These Design Perspectives have been graciously published on our behalf by partnering publications, and they are now reproduced here in our website section of the same name, Design Perspectives, for you our readers. Feel free to use these articles and insights to help support and promote the design profession. From the AIA Michigan website, simply click on the Design Perspectives heading in the box on the left. The articles can be found there for your edification. Thanks to our authors. Let us know if you'd like to contribute too.
