How we work to keep you in business
|
A message from BIA-RRV CEO Bryce Johnson
|
One of the primary purposes of the Building Industry Association of the RRV is to advocate on behalf of your industry and you. While advocacy and workforce development are at the heart of our Association, they are also one of the most resource-intensive endeavors.
Operationally, the Association leadership has looked at how we function, and the various events we produce to market the industry. Those events are revenue generators that enable us to stay in operation. For years they sustained operations including advocacy, but needs have multiplied. Times have changed.
Advocacy and workforce are the most costly to the Association, but also the most critical to keeping you in business. These efforts are possible with the support of our Very Invested Partners (VIPs).

April's Building Industry Connect highlights small communities

April's event featured local bedroom communities. We were joined by officials from Barnesville and Dilworth, Minn. and Casselton, Colfax/Richland County and Hillsboro/Traill County, N.D.
Attendees learned more about new events in each community, including:
- businesses starting, expanding and job opportunities,
- amenities like stores, clinics, parks and great school systems and
- ordinance and planning updates, housing developments, plus more.
Thank you to our Building Industry Connect sponsor Cass County Electric Cooperative. Save the date for our upcoming events May 15, Aug. 14, Sept. 25 and Oct. 16.
