FROM THE DESK OF
Santa Claus To all the Boys and Girls of the BIA – It’s finally that time of year. When children of all ages get to reflect back on the last year and start to look forward to what’s around the corner in the new year. Before I make my magical journey around the globe, I like to sit by the fireplace, sip on some hot cocoa (with the little marshmallows of course!) and start checking my list. I’ve got to figure out who has been naughty or nice. I have good news for all of you at the BIA - you all have had a great year and most of you don’t have to worry about finding coal in your stocking. 2016 was quite an eventful year for the BIA. Your Association turned a mere 70 years young and surpassed the 2,000-member mark, yet again. Congratulations! I’m very impressed. You said goodbye to the retiring Chuck Kavanaugh with a roaring send off. That was some party (I saw the pictures). You then welcomed Pat Durham, as he took over the Association’s reins. It was a smooth transition thanks to the leadership of this year’s BIA President, little Donnie Karem, and the Executive Board members. I think that they and their advisors deserve a little something extra under the tree this year for all their hard work! As a whole, the BIA and its members have been so busy that even my elves are impressed. You attended meetings to stay informed, worked with various committees to discuss important advocacy issues and continued to run your own businesses, all while keeping the interests and future of the BIA as top priorities. Even old Santa knows that active members are important to any association and your efforts have positioned the BIA as the voice of the building industry. To all the members who donated money, time and talents to the Building Industry Charitable Foundation, you definitely earned a spot on the nice list. The masterfully crafted playhouses for the Kosair Kids and the Visually Impaired Preschool, as well as other worthwhile projects, help spread holiday cheer year-round! I encourage each member to get involved and make 2017 the most philanthropic year yet! Mrs. Claus just reminded me that I better say thank you to all those hard working elves that make up the BIA staff. Working with the various committees, the staff put on a number of successful events, helped grow membership, kept the sleigh headed in the right direction and even helped address important legislation. It’s the nice list for all of them. I’m a bit of a holiday party expert (it comes with the territory in my line of work) and I think the BIA will have a fantastic Holiday Party on December 9 at the Hyatt Regency Louisville. I wish I could be there! I raise my mug of hot cocoa to the BIA and congratulate you on 2016 and cheers to 2017!

Comprehensive Plan
“This is our future. People who are experts in our industry and know our business should be in the room. It’s imperative that we have a strong and continued presence throughout this updating process.” – Pat Durham
Comprehensive Plan for Louisville Metro Why Your Participation is Important By Stacy Smith Rogers
A lot can happen in 20 years. Think about what you were doing two decades ago. Think about how much Louisville has changed. As the community plans for the next 20 years, those decades of experience can be put to good use. Members are invited to contribute their time and talents into positioning Louisville to build upon the momentum of recent years so that everyone (along with their children and grandchildren) can enjoy living in a vibrant community that encouraged (and was prepared for) growth and responded in a way that sustained the region culturally and economically. One way to do that is by participating in work groups created to support development of Louisville Metro’s Comprehensive Plan Update. What is a Comprehensive Plan? A comprehensive plan establishes a framework to guide public and private decisions about future growth, preservation and changes within a local government. It describes the community’s direction for future development and growth, recommending policies and projects to achieve its desired results. Outreach for developing a new plan is underway. It’s simply referred to as Louisville Metro’s Comprehensive Plan Update. It will serve as the community’s official statement about how it hopes to change over the next 20 years, building upon the current plan,
Cornerstone 2020, which has provided the framework for Louisville and Jefferson County’s land development regulations and policies (including the Land Development Code). Develop Louisville, specifically the Offices of Planning & Design Services and Advanced Planning, will focus on drafting the Comprehensive Plan Update with assistance from other divisions of Louisville Metro, as well as community and business organizations, outside agencies and citizens. Work groups have been created that focus on specific segments of living and working in Louisville, and the BIA encourages members to join december 2016 7
Comprehensive Plan in its effort of representing the interests of the Association and local industry. “Such an undertaking requires both time and effort, and the BIA intends to be in the very center of it,” BIA Director of Public Affairs and Public Policy Annie Fultz Dutton explained. “We strongly encourage our members to get involved in one of the work groups. This is the level where the ‘real work’ takes place and it’s important that our members’ interests are represented throughout the entire planning process.”

“Such an undertaking requires both time and effort, and the BIA intends to be in the very center of it.” - Annie Fultz Dutton
Committee Co-Chairs Cliff Ashburner and Cathe Dykstra Encourage Your Input Cliff Ashburner, Dinsmore & Shohl, is co-chairing the Comprehensive Plan Update Advisory Committee. He elaborated on why he is committed to the initiative. “An investment of time in the Comprehensive Plan Update is one of the best ways that I can make sure our community is one that I and my children can live and do business in for the next 20 years. BIA members can also bring a wealth of practical experience to the process so that the plan’s goals of a connected, healthy, authentic, sustainable, and equitable Louisville are expressed in ways that will actually work,” he said. Ashburner’s co-chair, Cathe Dykstra, Family Scholar House, echoed his enthusiasm, “As we think about and prepare for how our community will grow over the next 20-plus years, we have an opportunity to update our Comprehensive Plan in ways that
8 louisville builder • bialouisville.com
build upon our strengths, maintain our uniqueness and create a strategy for a healthy, diverse, inclusive, and vibrant Louisville community of the future. We encourage everyone to participate in one of the work groups to share ideas and help shape our community’s future.” Why is the BIA Encouraging You to Make This Commitment? “This is quite possibly one of the most important issues that will affect our industry for the next 20 years in Jefferson County,” noted Dutton. “Our membership is so diverse, which enables us to bring so many areas of expertise to the table. We want to make sure that everyone’s interests are represented and get our members engaged in this process. The real down and dirty work will happen at the work group level, so our goal is to get as many members as we can to participate and continue to participate throughout the process,” she added. BIA Executive Vice President Pat Durham is serving on the Advisory Committee. He explained why sticking it out for the long haul is important, “Historically, when you’ve got a project like this, there will be a big outpouring from the public for the first meeting or two. Then, after everyone has said their piece, that number starts to dwindle, until, eventually it’s just a handful of people. It’s important to remember that whoever is there in the end will get their voice heard. This is our future. People who are experts in our industry and know our business should be in the room. It’s imperative that we have a strong and continued presence throughout this updating process,” he emphasized. According to Dutton, the comprehensive plan is expected to be completed within a year. “This is a short term, intense commitment with a long term impact. We anticipate that there’s
Comprehensive Plan
going to be approximately one or two work group meetings a month. The leaders will set the dates and times. We’ve already heard from many of our members across numerous professions – realtors, bankers, developers, builders, engineers, landscape architects, and more – who recognize how important this planning process is to the building industry as a whole. We’re grateful they are stepping up to the plate and volunteering their time, expertise and knowledge and helping our community navigate this process,” Dutton added. “This is a duration game,” Durham said. “Those who are still at the table when it’s done will have an influence on the process. That’s why we are encouraging members to stay engaged and committed,” he added. Looking for a Work Group That Meets Your Interests and Expertise? Six work groups will focus on updating the Comprehensive Plan policies in the following areas: Mobility – policies related to land use and transportation patterns, including street connectivity, transit, enhancing the pedestrian and bicycle networks and the relationship between land use and transportation (informed by the goals identified in Move Louisville) Community Form – policies that address the character and diversity of Louisville’s neighborhoods and the review and update of Form District descriptions (incorporating recommendations from the Historic Preservation Task Force)
Housing – policies that address and advance the provision of and access to housing for all of Louisville’s citizens Marketplace – policies relating to Louisville’s business and economic growth How Can BIA Members Participate? To sign up for a work group, visit louisvilleky.gov/government/ planning-design/work-groups and complete a brief form (it takes less than a minute to complete). One of BIA’s Own Explains What It’s Like on Both Sides of the Planning Process Jim Mims, Elite Homes, previously served as director for Develop Louisville, a division of Metro Louisville. The combination of that experience and his background in landscape architecture, planning and development offers a unique perspective for serving on the Advisory Committee and encouraging fellow BIA members to participate in work groups. “The team at Planning & Design Services and Advanced Planning actively makes an extraordinary effort to engage the public in an attempt to receive good, honest input. They are well-intentioned people and their sole desire is to get it right for everybody. That’s why it’s important that we have lots of seats at the table, not only from the beginning, but all the way through. They want a fair and balanced representation of our community,” he explained.
“A comprehensive plan touches upon multiple aspects of how we utilize our resources in the community, particularly real estate. It’s the most important policy document that our local Community Facilities – policies related to the location and degovernment is involved with. It’s vital that the sign of public facilities including parks, government buildings, schools, utilities and non-transportation infrastructure such as interest of the building and development industry water and sewer facilities is well represented.” Livability & Environment – policies that enhance community health, equity, and sustainability (with input from Sustain Louisville, Healthy Louisville and the Health Equity Report)
– Jim Mims
Mims emphasized the impact this effort has on the future of the community. “A comprehensive plan touches upon muldecember 2016 9

tiple aspects of how we utilize our resources in the community, particularly real estate. It’s the most important policy document that our local government is involved with. It’s vital that the interest of the building and development industry is well represented,” he said. Mims explained that the plan doesn’t just focus on single family homes, but that it will cover all kinds of development and infrastructure that supports it, including transportation, roadway expansions, sewer lines, utilities, and much more. “This affects not only the core of our community, but also the development around the fringes of the Louisville area. It will define how we address all kinds of zoning issues and will determine how unique requests are handled.” Predictive Modeling Part of the Process While Mims admits that a year-long commitment sounds intense, the potential impact of everyone’s time is worth it. Currently, he said Louisville Metro is polling citizens on various issues, including what their next home could look like and where it might be. The goal is to examine neighborhoods and get feedback in preparation for conducting predictive modeling scenarios. Mims explained that predictive modeling is a good way to move a step beyond just listening to what the community wants. The planning team will develop scenarios to see what might happen if they followed the feedback, and will look
at the consequences for acting upon the community’s requests. “For instance, if they are hearing that the public wants to constrain growth boundaries, they’ll look at what will happen if they followed through with that. Will people move to adjoining counties? What are the consequences? If they look at an aggressive growth scenario or some land use growth policies that steer development, they’ll look at which areas will need more roads or sewers, or if that need will leapfrog to adjoining counties,” he explained. According to Mims, the predictive modeling piece will come around the halfway mark of the planning process. As the community gets more educated and hones in on the issues, they’ll explore some large scale predictive models, possibly two to four growth scenarios. Mims equates participating in the planning process with responsibility. “It’s about being a good citizen. So if you work or live in the community at whatever level, whether you’re a dog catcher or a land use attorney, and if you envision for yourself and the people who come behind you a strong and vibrant community, then you should participate. We’re trying to create a community that recognizes development is going to occur. We want to make it a place where people want to live, aesthetically and functionally. We have to ask ourselves if we want it to be a place that’s attractive to businesses and families considering a move here,” he added.

Cutting Through the Red Tape to Allow Businesses to Thrive in Kentucky By Stacy Smith Rogers
A new statewide initiative launched by Governor Matt Bevin’s office is addressing costly, ineffective and outdated regulations that hamper doing business or simply don’t make sense for citizens in Kentucky. Known as the Red Tape Reduction Initiative, the effort is striving to make Kentucky a more business-friendly state by eliminating unnecessary, burdensome and duplicative regulations by reviewing each of the 4,500-plus state administrative regulations and evaluating their purpose, need and intent. Bevin’s Administration is hard at work, but the governor is asking for citizens to play an active role by identifying regulations that make it hard to do business in Kentucky. By visiting www.redtapereduction.com, individuals can submit regulations to be considered for repeal or amending. Red Tape Reduction Initiative Offers a Unique Opportunity for BIA Members BIA Director of Public Affairs and Public Policy Annie Fultz Dutton elaborated on the effort, “When was the last time the government asked you how they could better serve you? This is 12 louisville builder • bialouisville.com
a prime opportunity for members to directly engage with our government and communicate which regulations are harming our businesses and are holding Kentucky back. The goal is to make Kentucky a better place to do business.” She noted that the initiative is wide open to all types of issues, not just issues impacting building. “There are many regulations out there that affect our members. The governor is directly asking for and wanting our feedback. Let’s not let this opportunity pass us by,” Dutton encouraged. Regulations by the Numbers • There are more than 4,500 state regulations on the books in Kentucky. • At press time, more than 1,100 state administrative regulations have been reviewed through the Red Tape Reduction Initiative. • The long-term goal is to eliminate as many as one-third of the administrative regulations currently on the books.
Cutting Through the Red Tape • As of the end of September, 197 regulations have been targeted for repeal. Of those, 91 have been repealed. Out of the 435 that were targeted for amendment, 67 have already been amended. (For an up-to-date list, check the “Progress” section of the website, www.redtapereduction.com.)
The bottom line intent of the Red Tape Reduction Initiative is to help spur job creation and investment, to change the attitude of government from regulation makers to regulation managers and to

get government “off the backs of Kentuckians.”
“You really have to applaud the governor’s office for looking at things from a business perspective,” BIA Executive Vice President Pat Durham said. “We’ve reached out to our members and asked them, ‘What’s on the books that is causing you the biggest problems and is there a better way of addressing it? What is impeding you and costing you money?’ We’ve really tried to wring out the towel and propose getting rid of things that aren’t needed,” he added.

“You really have to applaud the governor’s office for looking at things from a business perspective.” - Pat Durham John Miranda, Pinnacle Properties, is spearheading the Association’s effort to encourage participation among members. “This could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to truly affect regulations that hurt our industry. We are working hard to get as many affected members to participate – bankers, attorneys, engineers, developers, builders and others. It’s very simple to do. It took me less than five minutes,” he explained. BIA Land Development Chair Billy Doelker, Key Homes, and BIA Codes Chair Perry Lyons, P.L. Lyons, are working closely with the BIA and HBAK in identifying regulations that impede progress in the building industry. They have submitted numerous regulations and encourage fellow members to join the effort. “After hearing from Governor Bevin several times and a couple others from the Administration, I firmly believe we have a unique chance to eliminate some of these onerous regulations and make a difference,” Doelker encouraged.

The governor’s office concludes that this initiative will not only help businesses, but it will assist drives up costs. Through this outreach, Governor Bevin is shedding light on excessive and complex regulatory burdens that are a hardship for many small business owners. Key Regulations Identified That Affect the Building Industry Below are some of the issues the BIA and HBAK have targeted thus far: • Delay period for electrical inspector approval • Arc fault breakers
• Air gaps for dishwashers
• Tamper proof safety plugs
• Kentucky Building Code books
• Electronic signatures for real estate and mortgage transactions • Encroachment permits
• MSD & KDOW dual jurisdiction site inspections
• Maintenance of detention/retention ponds and basins • Worker’s compensation reciprocity
• Alternative minimum tax flat fee • Annual report fee
• Occupational license tax reporting and collection How Can You Submit a Regulation to be Reviewed? Suggestions on regulations that should be reviewed are welcome from everyone and can be submitted online through www.redtapereduction.com. A link to the Kentucky Administrative Regulations website is also listed on the site where visitors can search by keywords and titles for administrative regulations on the books. Annie requests that members let her know which regulations they have submitted so the BIA and HBAK can follow up on them.

Elite Homes’ Summer of Giving a Huge Success Local charities benefit from new home sales
Rocky and Joe Pusateri spent the end of their summer leading Elite Homes’ Summer of Giving campaign. Thanks to the fun, family-oriented events held throughout the summer, Elite Homes sold 33 new homes and donated $33,000 to charity. Three local groups – YouthBuild Louisville, The Woodstock Animal Foundation, and St. John Center for Homeless Men – each received a portion of the proceeds. “We’re proud to be here in Louisville, and glad to be able to give something back with our Summer of Giving,” said Elite’s President Joe Pusateri. Elite Homes donated $1,000 from each of the 33 new homes sold between July 1 and September 30, 2016. Fans of Elite Homes’ Facebook page voted for their favorite of the three nominated charities. The charity with the most fan votes received a larger portion of the donations. The winner, The Woodstock Animal Foundation, was announced at an event on November 2. Woodstock received a donation of $16,500. Runner-up, the St. John Center, received $9,900 and YouthBuild Louisville received $6,600. The BIA has a longstanding relationship with YouthBuild Louisville because we share a passion for educating young people in the construction trades. Executive Director Lynn Rippy 14 louisville builder • bialouisville.com
stated, “YouthBuild Louisville greatly appreciates BIA members lending their time and talents to our students. The mentorship and potential job opportunities with BIA members are truly priceless for the long-term change in our young people’s lives. Also, we are honored to have been chosen as as one of the charities to benefit from Elite Homes’ Summer of Giving campaign. The donation will be allocated for our new community building which will house counselors, classrooms, local nonprofit partners and a fitness center.”

The Door Store and Windows Receives National Award
The BIA congratulates The Door Store and Windows for being nationally recognized as the “2016 Dealer of the Year for Overall Excellence” by Window and Door Magazine and the Window and Door Dealer Alliance. The award is given annually and this is the first and only time a Kentucky dealer has been recognized. The Door Store and Windows, locally owned and operated by sisters Ann Gregory and Laurie Scarborough, is in its 20th year of business. Over that time, the business focused on providing an exceptional experience to homeowners, builders, remodelers and architects through the delivery of quality products and exceptional customer service. As summed up by Ann Gregory, “We have a high level of expectation of what quality means. We aim to give each customer the best experience possible and we have hired a team that thinks that way too.” In the past few years, growth has led the company to expand into a new warehouse space and a newly redesigned showroom. The company also added seven new employees in sales and service functions including new General Manager John Owens,
who has an extensive experience in the window and door industry. All employees at The Door Store and Windows take great pride in serving Louisville’s builder and designer communities and the company’s leadership strongly encourages support and involvement in local professional organizations such as the Building Industry Association of Greater Louisville. The newly redesigned “idea showroom” offers extensive displays helping customers understand their options and provides a new meeting space for industry professionals. The Door Store and Windows ensures through a consultative approach that homeowners understand the products going into their homes and how the products meet their needs and desires. With an emphasis on service John Owens stated, “I’m confident building professionals can depend on a hands-on approach to service and education that is designed to fully satisfy all participants in the construction or remodeling process. It’s what we do.” The Door Store and Windows is a locally owned and operated business, located in St. Matthews near the Mall St. Matthews.

Teresa Morgan Semonin Realtors BICF Committee Member
Brad Hicks Bradley Homes BIA Board of Directors 2017 Playhouse Builder Mentor
Brandon Bailey Bailey Remodeling BICF Chair
David Hobbs River City Bank BICF Playhouse Sponsor
Carrie Morgeson CapABLE Living BICF Committee Member
BICF: Building Connections That Change Lives Seven years ago, the Building Industry Charitable Foundation (BICF) was formed with the mission of improving the quality of life of special needs children and adults in the Louisville area. The mission has become a labor of love for many BIA members as the work of the Foundation has supported a variety of charitable organizations in the community. Notably, BICF has partnered with Kosair Charities and YouthBuild Louisville, one of 273 YouthBuild chapters around the world that educates, counsels and provides job skills to unemployed adults 18 to 24 years of age. The collaboration has profoundly affected the lives of children through the construction of playhouses that are designed and built to meet the specific interests and needs of the individual children with a wide range of special needs. 22 louisville builder • bialouisville.com
BICF Chair Brandon Bailey, of Bailey Remodeling and Construction, expresses the sentiments of others who actively participate: “I got involved with BICF because I was a builder mentor. I liked the idea of combining my career with serving the community. BIFC was an easy fit for that.” As chair, he has been instrumental in helping determine projects with which to participate, finding builders and remodelers to design and construct playhouses, and selecting the children who will receive the playhouses. “We were fortunate to secure some base donors who got us going in the early days. Since then, funding has taken a few different forms. Last year we sponsored a call day that raised half our budget for this year,” says Bailey. Plans are in place to repeat that fundraising effort.
Building Connections
BICF is Teresa Morgan’s favorite BIA committee. Morgan, of Semonin Realtors and a BICF committee member since its inception, readily shares her experience. “It gives me the feeling that I’m really doing something that matters. When you’re part of giving back, it gives you the energy to do your daily job. And, of course, when the kids see the playhouses during the reveal, that really sticks with you. I love YouthBuild just as much. Seeing the YouthBuild Louisville students realize what they have accomplished makes all the work we do worthwhile.” Being a BICF member and having his company be a playhouse sponsor for four years has given River City Bank’s David Hobbs a unique perspective. “Each year we’re presented with children having different types of disabilities. Such outstanding people ‒ with Kosair Charities, YouthBuild Louisville and BICF ‒ become involved in these projects and work together to facilitate playhouses based around the children’s dreams and fantasies,” he says. Neither he nor his staff knew until the unveil that the recipient of one of the playhouses was a River City Bank customer. “We were so fortunate to have been part of the program that helped that family.” CapABLE Living, a company founded by occupational therapists, specializes in working with both the physical and sensory needs of its clients. Modifying their clients’ home environments and striving to keep them independent and safe are
primary goals. “BICF’s building the playhouses speaks to the heart of what we do as a company. Together with builders and remodelers, we bridge the space between the medical needs and functionabilities of the children,” says Carrie Morgeson, of CapABLE Living. She continues by saying that she and her staff value their involvement because they can make a significant contribution to finding cost-effective solutions for the challenges facing each of the children and his or her environment. “A lot of my interest in BICF goes back to my adopting three children from Ukraine and having a heart for people who can’t help themselves,” says Bradley Hicks, of Bradley Homes, and the parent of a child who has needed extensive therapy as a result of fetal alcohol syndrome. Hicks, a BICF committee member and current playhouse builder, was on the BIA board of directors last year and will serve on the board again next year. “God gives us all talents. This is a way to put to use my talents and the experiences I have gained over the years in the building industry. The meetings take some time, but it’s so gratifying to be part of the BICF,” he says. december 2016 23

The last Oldham County Council Meeting of the year debuted 2017 Homearama at Catalpa Farms & Poplar Woods. Executive Vice President Pat Durham spoke to the group of BIA members about how participating in Homearama can drive business throughout 2017. He gave examples of Homearama 2016 participants closing large sales to a crowd of nearly 50,000 at Norton Commons & River Crest. Homearama is a staple in the Greater Louisville area and has been produced by the Association since 1968, which is why it is so important for BIA members to understand the various ways they can be affiliated with this iconic event. Signature Green Properties is the developer for both 2017 Homearama sites and spokesperson Mike Jones shared numerous details about Catalpa Farms located in eastern Jefferson County & Poplar Woods located in the City of Goshen, in Oldham County. The developments are both conservation subdivisions, each boasting dozens of acres of protected open space for residents to enjoy. Jon Mand with Lenihan Sotheby’s International Realty provided specifics about lot pricing and availability within the two Homearama sites. Thank you to Carpet Specialists, Esposito Construction, Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting Gallery and Rogers Group for sponsoring the luncheon.
