BIASC Membership Offers the Following Return on Your Investment:

Advocacy = Profitability

The Government Affairs leadership at the Orange Couny Chapter of BIA/SC saved our membership millions by working with public agencies to approve development impact fee deferral programs to help stimulate the economy. Those who are participating in this program include the city of Orange, Mission Viejo, Anaheim, Santa Ana, Irvine, the County of Orange and the OC Sanitation District and in an unprecedented move, the Anaheim Union High School District followed suit. This economic stimulus plan has been well received and the results speak for themselves. The city of Orange’s development fee deferral directly benefited BIA/OC member Centex Homes. Because of the cost-savings the new fee deferral economic stimulus plan offered, Centex Homes decided to move forward with their next phase that was previously on hold. Another tremendous example of the successful industry advocacy by BIA!

Networking & Education = Business Opportunities & Informed Decisions

BIA offers members great networking venues to meet new business contacts and hear experts provide solutions to current and future challenges. With the astounding amount of change permeating the Orange County residential construction market, getting straight answers from the experts is a must. Those answers can be found at BIA/OC’s Economic Forecast, Development Trends Conference, Government Affairs Committee Meetings, Construction Quality & Sustainable Building Workshops, P.A.S.S. Networking Events, and General Membership Meetings. Education equals better informed owners, executives, managers and employees who then make more savvy decisions when planning for the future.
