Critical Dunes Building/Development Seminar October 11th


Several member-only seminars on the changes to the state’s Critical Dunes Act have been scheduled for the months of September and October.  These two hour seminars, conducted by the Michigan Association of Home Builders and the Michigan Association of REALTORS®, will cover the major changes in how building will take place in the critical dunes following what environmentalists have called “the most significant changes ever” to the Critical Dunes Act.

The dates and times are still tentative and the exact locations for each have not been established.  However, the HBA office will be sending out more information regarding the local event in the coming weeks. 

At press time, the seminar for the Grand Traverse region will be held on Thursday, October 11th from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at the Traverse Area Association of REALTORS® office, 852 S. Garfield, Traverse City. 

These seminars are not for the general public, although HBA and TAAR members may invite guests to show them what associations can accomplish on behalf of their members.

Light hors d’oeuvres and beverages will be provided at no cost to attendees.  However, pre-registration is required.

To increase value, builders and remodelers who attend these seminars may earn one hour of continuing competency in both environment and legal.  Continuing competency certificates will be available at the end of the seminar.

Sept. 14th—Grand Rapids (8-10 a.m.)
