Organization Blog

The Organization Committee was started in January 2008 and completed its work in late 2008, with the finalization of the strategic plan, bylaws and other provisional chapter documents. Since the primary function and goal of the Organization Committee was to pull together documentation that would move USGBC's presence in Central Ohio from Organizing Group to Provisional Chapter, our work is now complete with the approval of the USGBC Central Ohio Chapter in May, 2009.
