Report of the Chapter Chair Leon Bach I am pleased to submit the 2015 year-end report for the Southwestern Chapter. Firstly I want to thank the members of the Chapter Executive for all the work they have done for the Chapter over the last year. Their support, guidance and dedication are greatly appreciated. I would like to take this opportunity to reflect on the events of 2015. The membership continues to be strong averaging 27.7 attendees at each of the Chapter meetings. The Chapter saw 3 members retire and welcomed 2 new members. Our membership consists of 111 members, which includes affiliate members, students and a few retirees. Throughout the past year the Chapter hosted 8 regular meetings in which guest speakers were invited to inform our membership of their various specialties. The Annual General meeting was held at the Norwich Municipal Offices in March. The May meeting in London featured guest speaker Brenda Lewis and Nadim Khan from MMAH as well as Aubrey LeBlanc CAO of the OBOA. This summer s meeting was a bus trip and a tour of Quality Homes located in Kenilworth, Ontario. The annual meeting and golf tournament was held in August at the Caradoc Sands Golf Course in Strathroy. The annual Christmas lunch was held at the Caradoc Sands Golf Course in Strathroy. Throughout 2015 the Chapter delivered numerous training courses and seminars of which were well attended by the membership. In 2015 the Chapter raised & donated funds in the amount of $ 690.00 which were earmarked for the Women's Rural Resource Centre Renovation Project. Further donations were made for the student sponsorship for the AMTS in the amount of $1000.00 and the AMTS Suite for $300.00. The Southwestern Chapter has entered into a 5 year agreement with Fanshawe College for the next five years with regards to a bursary commitment. Two bursaries will be awarded yearly in the amount of $500 each. The 2015 recipients were Joel Van Maren and Milosz Wozniak both of whom are students at Fanshawe College in the Technical Programs. Recognition goes to Pam Hastie for the dedication to her Executive position by going above and beyond the call of duty during her maternity leaves. Recognition was also given to Matthew Stephenson for his past service on the Executive in the position of Program Coordinator. Recognition was also given to the three members of the Chapter who retired in 2015. Congratulations to our Southwestern Chapter member Al Shaw on his election to the position of President and to Grant Brouwer, Vice President for the OBOA. As Chairman of this Chapter, I look forward to working with each and every one of the members through 2016. In closing I would like to thank the membership for all the contributions they bring forward to make this one of the most active and acknowledged Chapters in the Province. Respectfully Submitted, Leon Bach, Chapter Chair of the Southwestern Chapter 3

Architect involved was The Ventin Group Ltd (+VG). Building is 10,000 SF, built on the site of an old golf course, soils were close to quicksand so helical piers were used.

Education Update: Aaron not in attendance, emailed update read aloud: HVAC course coming in January, Registration form should be out by middle of November. Reason for lack of courses being set up is the OBOA lacking on trained facilitators (facilitators not available or not willing to drive out of GTA) New Business 1. 2016 Budget Question brought up on budget circulated: Why cuts to expected education revenue? Adjusted due to diminished involvement & availability of courses / facilitators. Issues with some members signing up, but not showing up and not paying. 13

2016 Budget Continued... Cannot alter Bursary commitment as it is locked in for 4 years. With reduced expected revenue, to lessen expenses would mean less student sponsorship, higher individual costs for events (fewer subsidies to social events like bbq, golf, Christmas). Comment made that it is easier with budgets to increase it once and not continually go back asking for little bit more here and there. Motion by John Nooren to increase Membership fee to $75, seconded by Geno Vanhaelewyn. Carried Motion by Dan Dale to approve budget as amended, seconded by Doug Mitton. Carried 2.

Minutes November meeting minutes were not circulated, deferred to January Meeting Old Business No reports from Treasurer or Program Coordinator Education Update: Aaron Stewardson: HVAC course specially set up by HRAI geared towards Building officials is a go for January. 10 more registrants would be ideal.
