This advocacy program focuses on educating State and Local governmental organizations on the vital role that the Commercial Real Estate Industry plays in supporting the Utah Economy. Advocacy is one of the primary focuses of NAIOP, and the Utah Chapter has elevated its efforts to unify and amplify our industry’s voice so that the State and Local Governments recognize the impact of our industry.

 

This program will establish and strengthen the understanding and appreciation of Commercial Real Estate in Utah. It will focus on building strong relationships with state and local government officials to educate them on the role that Commercial Real Estate plays in elevating economic opportunity in the State. 

 

The overall vision is to drive state and local public policy that enhances and protects commercial real estate development in Utah. We have seen a rise in local and state legislative actions that are detrimental to our industry requiring more and more coordination between all of the members of the Commercial Real Estate Community. This program will formalize these efforts, and it will immediately focus on driving legislation and issues that will create positive policy tools for our industry.

 

Program Purpose:  To further establish and strengthen the understanding and appreciation of Commercial Real Estate in Utah.

 

Program Vision:  Driving state and local public policy that enhances and protects commercial real estate development in Utah.

 

Program Mission:  Make NAIOP Utah as the prime voice for the Commercial Real Estate Community in the State by advocating for public policy that preserves and encourages Commercial Real Estate Development because it is the platform for all economic development.

 

The program has formed a Policy Advisor Committee to provide strategic input and programmatic direction. Along with this Committee, a Utah Political Action Committee (PAC) has been formed to support individuals and initiatives beneficial to the Commercial Real Estate Industry.
