Subcommittee to broaden outreach after no applicants for Board of Examiners seats
Summary
The nomination subcommittee reported no applicants for several Board of Examiners seats and discussed targeted outreach to professional organizations including the AIA and structural/civil engineering groups to solicit candidates.
At the Feb. 17 meeting, staff told the Building Inspection Commission nomination subcommittee that no applicants had been received for multiple Board of Examiners vacancies, including the high-rise sprinkler representative, building owner representative, seismic/tenant-improvement architect seat, and general contractor seat.
Commissioners discussed expanding outreach to professional organizations and networks. One commissioner suggested contacting the American Institute of Architects and structural engineering groups and asked staff to prepare a posting or PDF that could be shared on association newsletters and dashboards. Commissioners also suggested outreach to local community organizations and civil engineering associations to identify qualified candidates.
Staff said they would pursue those outreach options and collaborate with commissioners on additional candidate recruitment.
