send ideas to WILL WRIGHT
Each year AIA Los Angeles presents a critical agenda of key environmental design issues to City leaders and pushes for their adoption as part of our annual AIA|LA Legislative Day at City Hall. As an architect & design professional providing the leadership to improve the built environment, this is your opportunity to recommend to the Political Outreach Committee specific ISSUE BRIEFS you'd like to see AIA|LA officially adopt as part of its 2010 advocacy slate.

AIA|LA Political Outreach Committee
The primary goal of the AIA|LA Political Outreach Committee (POC) is to review and influence government policies and regulations pertaining to issues that impact the built and natural environments. To help implement this goal, the POC works closely with additional AIA|LA committees, including the AIA|LA Committee on the Environment (COTE), the AIA|LA Urban Design Committee (UDC), the AIA|LA Building Performance & Regulations Committee (BPR), the AIA|LA Professional Practice Committee and the AIA|LA Historic Resources Committee (HRC).
The AIA|LA POC meets regularly on the second Tuesday of each month and all AIA|LA members in good standing are welcome to attend. By contributing pro-actively to the discussion you will help the committee develop a legislative agenda for the Chapter, which will form the thesis of our annual AIA|LA Legislative Day at City Hall. In addition to scheduling meetings with Council Members, Planning Deputies, the Mayor's Office and numerous General Managers and Directors of the vast array of City departments, the POC works closely with key staff members in the Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety, LADOT, the Planning Department, the CRA/LA, LADWP, LAWA and Bureau of Engineer/ Public Works.
The POC is co-chaired by Roger Sherman, AIA and Jim Favaro, AIA.
