Happy New Year!
As we start the new year and new possibilities I’d like to take a moment to congratulate the new board members. Welcome Glen, Natalie and Randy. Board members that have ended their terms and no longer serving will be missed but here in spirit. We have our first board meeting Scheduled for January 12th at 6pm on Zoom. Our 2023 Spring Conference Panama City Beach, FL will be held March 10th – 12th. The membership has voted in new bylaws which are posted here, every member should take the time to be familiar with them. FABI’s day to day operations is run by the amazing Executive Director Emily Hartstone with the direction of the Board of Directors. She handles most of the communication of the organization, arranges and runs our conferences. The planning and heart of FABI is in the committees. The committees regularly meet, discuss and report on the path of FABI, guiding our FABI family into the future. They plan education, approve new members, review reports, verify RPIs and MPIs. They participate in Legislation and Ethics. They run the Florida Home Inspection Exam. They keep FABI moving. The committee Chairs and Co-chairs are responsible for making sure the Committees run properly and meet any needed guidelines. If you are interested in helping FABI in any way including participating in a committee please let us know. Here are the proposed 2023 committee members:
