Passing the reins...

[Michael R. Boyett]

For the past 6 years I have attended most all of the TREC Inspector Advisory Committee meetings and reported my observations and meeting notes on the INACHI message board as well as my personal company blog, ActiveRain and elsewhere. I have also held the semi-official title of INACHI Legislative Liaison for Texas (although Regulatory Affairs Representative might be more apropos).

I’ve decided it is time to pass the reins on to someone new now. I plan to devote more time and energy to maintaining my inspection business as well as doing a little traveling to visit my kids and grand-kids who are in separate parts of the country.

I recently posted my meeting notes from the 3/22/10 TREC Inspectors Summit at TAMU and that will be my last post on legislative and regulatory topics on the message board. There is a lot of work to do and great opportunities for INACHI-Texas in regards to the activities proposed at the summit. That initiative deserves your support.

If another INACHI-Texas inspector would like to take over this responsibility then just let me know and I can bring you up to speed and pass along my prior notes to you.

That would be Scott Emerson, a buddie of mine. I just got off the phone with him.

As for a "coalition," InterNACHI already has a "coalition" of 350 inspectors.

As for a "voice," we have our own hotline to TREC.

OK, good deal...it's done.

Good job, Mike.

Scott helped us launch www.certifiedmasterinspector.org many years ago.

Welcome, Scott.

Thank you Mike.

[Nick Gromicko]

Thanks Mike.

Mike,

Your attendance at TREC on behalf of INACHI was outstanding. Your departure is a loss not only to INACHI but to all Texas inspectors. Thank you for your service. I am buying you a steak on my next trip to Austin.

Thanks guys....the most important thing is that InterNACHI will continue to have a voice at TREC. I'm sure Scott will make sure InterNACHI takes a lead role in the effort to establish a singular inspector presence here in Texas by working with the other prominent associations.

Yeah, Scott is good at that. He's a member of several associations and very diplomatic.

I'm horrible at stuff like that and avoid foreign entanglements.

Mike, I want to thank you for all the help you've given me over the past few years as I had questions regarding the TREC regulations. Your assistance had been invaluable.

[Richard W. Washington]

Thanks Mike for all of your hard work. Please come back and post from time to time.

[Brian E. Kelly]

Great Job Michael. I had no dog in the trec hunt but always enjoyed reading you meeting minutes/notes. Expect to see some grandkids pics and or fishing pics soon

Michael, Your leadership and commitment to provide a voice at the state level will be missed. In replacing you I will try my best to step up and work with other associations to bring one voice to Austin and TREC. I'm currently in Atlanta attending a conference with several large real estate inspection companies from cities across then United States and Canada. I will contact you the first part of next week. - Scott
