ADVOCATE - Policy Committees

Get Involved, Make A Difference!

Working closely with the Chapter's CEO Tamara Small and 2019 Government Affairs Chairs Kathleen Brill of Foley Hoag & Bryan Connolly of DLA Piper, members of NAIOP's Government Affairs Committee and related subcommittees actively work to shape the laws and policies affecting the commercial real estate industry in Massachusetts. To learn about some of the issues NAIOP is currently pursuing, view the 2019 Agenda or review recent accomplishments.

Policy committees meet throughout the year and opportunities exist for members on all of the following committees:

Government Affairs Committee 
Members of this committee shape NAIOP's government affairs advocacy efforts. They draft legislation, provide input on economic, environmental and land use regulations, and meet with key decision makers at all levels of state government to advance the industry's agenda. They are often invited to represent NAIOP on regulatory working groups.  Meetings are held on a monthly basis and agendas are based on member input. 

Opportunities also exist on issue-specific subcommittees (which meet on an as-needed basis):
  • Brownfields Redevelopment: Co-chaired by Ned Abelson of Goulston & Storrs and Lisa Campe of Woodard & Curran
  • Climate Change Resiliency: Co-chaired by Maureen McCaffrey of MIT Investment Management Company and Stephanie Kruel of VHB
  • Zoning/Land Use: Chaired by Robert Fishman of Nutter, McClennen & Fish
  • Transportation/Infrastructure
  • Construction/Contracts
  • Building & Energy Code
 For more information or to get involved, contact Tamara Small at (781) 453-6900 x5.
