Becoming HBAL President for 2019 is an honor and a big challenge. A challenge because I follow in the steps of many previous Presidents who led HBAL so effectively and because our industry and Association face many challenges and opportunities in 2019. A special thank you to Bo Jones for his excellent leadership in 2018 and for providing HBAL with a strong foundation for 2019!

This year we will continue to struggle with a lack of skilled labor, increased materials and land costs, and the cost of government regulation. As an association, we must continue our focus on working with the youth of the community to introduce them to and create an interest in becoming a part of the skilled construction workforce. Working with the City of Lincoln City Council and administration to create an environment that is pro-growth and development has to be one of our top priorities.

The Growth is Good Coalition comprised of HBAL, LIBA, Chamber of Commerce and the Realtors Association support the six-year 0.25% sales tax for street construction and repair.

Part of the negotiations to gain the coalition’s support was a five-year freeze on impact fees if the sales tax is passed by the voters in the April primary election. I ask each of our members to become educated on this issue and get out to vote. If you have questions, please contact me or Michaela. In addition, HBAL has an opportunity and absolute need to be involved in City Council and Mayoral races. Please consider joining HOMEPAC as we work to raise money and campaign for those we feel can best support our industry and community.

We are a strong Association with over 572 member companies. Our efforts on behalf of the industry and the community are amazing. However, each year we lose as many members as we gain. The best tool any organization has for membership retention is active participation.

I encourage you to become involved in HBAL and to encourage fellow members and members you sponsor to become involved.

February is a busy month for HBAL. Our largest event of the year, the Nebraska Builders Home and Garden Show, is February 8-10 at the Lancaster County Event Center. There are continuing education opportunities including a Lunch and Learn: HBAL 101 that will provide an overview of the Association and ways to become involved.

A big thank you to our talented and dedicated staff for all the work they do on behalf of HBAL and our members.

Best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous 2019. I look forward to serving the Association and seeing each of you at our many events.

HBAL Installation & Awards Ceremony

HBAL Installation & Awards Ceremony Denny Van Horn installed as the 69th President of HBAL Denny Van Horn, Van Horn Custom Homes, was installed as President at the Annual Installation and Awards Ceremony of the Home Builders Association of Lincoln on January 14, 2019 at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center.

Denny was also a recepient of the 2018 President’s Award. Outgoing President Bo Jones said, “The President’s Award goes to someone who is a strong advocate for our industry and who has on many occasions gone above and beyond to be a voice for Home Builders and share our opinions on very important issues. He is cautious in forming opinions, always trying to understand both sides of the story, and articulate in sharing his views.

One of my favorite characteristics about Denny is his straight-forward, common-sense approach.”

Past Presidents in attendance were Dan Klein, Sr. (2012), Bob Stephens (1981), Matt Kleinschmit (2017), Greg Schwinn (1992), Jim Christo (1989 & 2004), Justin Johnson (2016), Roger Reynolds (1999 & 2001) and Mike Kinning (2014).

HBAL Installation & Awards Ceremony

Award Winners Membership Awards Membership Awards are recognition for membership recruitment. Individuals such as these are the life blood of our organization.

Herm Hempel Award In 2018, we brought in 57 new members. Of these, 12 of them were recruited by Denny Van Horn.

Because of his efforts, Denny has earned the 2018 Herm Hempel Award for most new members.

Ervin E. Peterson Founders Award The Ervin E. Peterson Founders Award also goes to Denny for retaining the most members in 2018.

It is great to have Denny involved with recruiting and retaining members of HBAL.

Associate of the Year Adam Albee received the 2018 Associate of the Year Award. Adam has been very active in many of HBAL’s events this year especially the Young Building Professionals Council. He sponsored the 2018 Light the Way 5K, co-hosted the first YBP Tailgate in November and provided barbeque meals for the YBP Holiday Party in January, Membership Lunch in September and the Remodelers Golf Tournament in August. We’ve had some great barbeque this year! Adam has been chairperson of the Remodelers Golf Tournament for seven years and has always donated more than his share of prizes for the raffle.

He also hosted a booth for the Chili Cook-Off.

DSC Employee of the Year The Development Services Center Employee of the Year Award went to Mike Peterson. Mike did an excellent job while the chief plans examiner was out of the office for an extended time last summer. He always does a great job with answering builders’ questions with answers they can count on and is willing to go the extra mile to help find solutions to issues when they arise. Mike is always pleasant to work with, has a great attitude and treats everyone with respect.

Affiliate of the Year 2018 Affiliate of the Year Award winner, Jereme Montgomery, has been instrumental in working with youth in our community to get them involved with careers in construction.

Jereme serves on the Hog Roast and Careers in Construction committees. His booth at the Chili Cook-Off included calculations on how much of each ingredient would be needed to make a yard of chili. At $5,377 per cubic yard, that’s pretty pricy when compared to a yard of concrete! Jereme helped create a two-year curriculum for Stephens and Smith that was approved by the US Department of Labor and is now Nebraska’s only federally registered merit-based apprenticeship program. He has been recognized nationally in the concrete industry for his efforts in creating a Nebraska based concrete recruitment campaign called ConcreteTough.
