CALBO President Sheila Lee accepts the
ICC Chapter of the Year Award from Awards Committee Chairman
Ed Berkel.
The 2006 ICC Chapter of the Year Award was presented to the
California
Building Officials (CALBO) during the Annual Conference
in Orlando. CALBO was on hand to accept the award presented
at the conference's Awards Luncheon.
With more than 600 members, CALBO has been instrumental in
the adoption of the I-Codes in California and the development
of California-specific certification programs. CALBO also
held a Lobby Day at the state capital to help establish it
as the go-to organization for building issues in California.
CALBO continued to provide outstanding education programs,
training more than 5,000 students at its annual Training Institute.
But their efforts extend beyond the California borders. Working
in partnership with the California Office of Emergency Services,
they activated CALBO Call-Out, a mutual aid program to coordinate
disaster-response volunteers. Through the program, CALBO organized
local building department staff from throughout the state
to travel to the Gulf Coast region and aid in hurricane relief
and recovery efforts.
