Houston BOMA City Hall Advocacy Day
Join Houston BOMA members and industry leaders for a day of direct engagement with Houston’s elected officials and city leadership. Participants will meet with City Council Members and key policymakers to discuss the issues affecting commercial real estate, including public safety, infrastructure, permitting, taxation, economic development, and the long-term competitiveness of Houston’s business environment.
Advocacy Day is designed to give property professionals, engineers, managers, owners, and service providers a stronger understanding of local government while ensuring city leaders hear directly from the professionals responsible for operating and maintaining Houston’s commercial buildings every day.
Whether you are new to advocacy or a longtime industry leader, this event provides a meaningful opportunity to build relationships, strengthen Houston BOMA’s voice, and help advance policies that support a thriving commercial real estate industry.
