ACT Chapter Council Elections
We would like to thank everyone who took time out to vote in the recent elections.
Congratulations to incoming Chapter Councillors – Bronwen Jones, Sander de Vries, Reiné Williams, Will Gardner and re-elected Councillors Janet Thomson and Alastair MacCallum. Our congratulations also go to Annette Pogas and Reiné Williams for their appointment as EmAGN co-representatives and Nathan Pauletto as SONA representative.
A special thank you, after many years of representation, to retiring Councillor and Practice Committee Chair David Clarke. While reducing his time commitment, we look forward to David being active in debates which affect our profession. We welcome Marcus Graham, who will take over from David as Chair of the Practice Committee.
On behalf of the ACT Chapter staff we hope you will join us in thanking these, and ongoing Councillors: Natalie Coyles, Tony Trobe, Alan Morschel, Chris Millman, Michael Jasper and Dominic Pelle, and the Committee Chairs and members for their preparedness to contribute to the well being of the profession in this region.
In addition to representing the profession to Federal and Territory Governments and in building industry forums, the ACT Chapter has a program of 40 events, which are either effective continuing professional development or advocacy of architecture which enhances the cultural, environmental and economic well-being of the community by:
- advancing contemporary practice and the professional capability of members, and
- promoting quality, responsible, sustainable design.
We look forward to you joining us in these activities throughout 2015!
