Politics, Policy and Apartments to Dominate Discussion at Fall Meeting
An exclusive group
of NMHC members will be arriving in the nation’s capital next week for the 2014 NMHC Fall Board of Directors
and Advisory Committee Meeting.
This year’s event is set to be a heady mix of business and politics, as senior
apartment executives come together with key White House and Capitol Hill
leaders.
The
program features a star-spangled cast of political personalities and prodigies,
as well as special guest speakers Walter
Isaacson, the best-selling author of the widely-acclaimed “Steve
Jobs” biography, and Mike Murphy,
political strategist and analyst for NBC News and contributing TIME editor.
Key leaders joining NMHC for more
in-depth discussion of critical legislative and regulatory issues include new HUD Secretary Julian Castro, Senators Mark Begich (D-Alaska), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), Kristen Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Rob Portman (R-Ohio), as well as Representatives Kevin McCarthy
(R-Calif., pictured) and Aaron Schock
(R-Ill.).
NMHC’s Emerging
Leaders group is also hosting a special Speakers Series event in conjunction with the board meeting. On Sept. 16, the group will welcome
the industry’s young professionals for an evening with up-and-coming members of
Congress and their key staffers for a behind-the-scenes look at life on Capitol
Hill.

How the Multifamily Industry Must Adapt to Shifting Market Dynamics
Earlier
this year, NMHC teamed up with the American Planning Association and ULI’s
Terwilliger Center for Housing to launch the first annual ULI/Carolyn and
Preston Butcher Forum on Multifamily Housing. The event provided a platform for
industry leaders to discuss the changing multifamily residential landscape and
led to the development of a series of “big ideas” for expanding the
availability of rental housing nationwide.
Here’s the Cliff’s Notes version of the takeaways, but the full presentation,
developed by Michelle McDonough Winters, senior visiting fellow for housing at
the ULI Terwilliger Center, is available here.
