Nearly 200 home building professionals gathered May 22 for the Home Builders Association of Metropolitan Portland’s sixth annual Excellence Awards Banquet, which recognizes the outstanding work of local companies across a variety of categories.
In addition to the 34 Excellence Awards, the HBA presented Annual Awards to individual members who demonstrated exceptional commitment to the association in 2009.
“It is important that we take some time each year to applaud the individuals and companies who lead our association through their efforts,” said HBA Chief Executive Officer Dave Nielsen. “We were proud to have so many awards to issue this year, and so many difficult decisions to make when judging submissions. The Portland area’s homebuilding industry is home to some amazing talent and some outstanding professionals.”
