AS WE BRING 2014 TO A CLOSE,
MY TERM AS HBASE PRESIDENT IS
NEARING COMPLETION. THIS HAS
BEEN A VERY BUSY YEAR AS WE
HAVE ACCOMPLISHED MANY THINGS.

throughout our community. A round of
applause is in order for each and every
volunteer, donor and member who
participated in the planning and
construction of this home.
at 5:30PM. We’ll be announcing our
yearly awards, installing the 2015
president and also inducting two
individuals into our Hall of Fame. Invite
your co-workers and spouses to this
event. Please see page 9 for info.
From approving a Strategic Plan, to
conducting Feedback Forums to learn
from our members, to meeting with
government officials and candidates
running for office on issues important
to our businesses, to discussing future
Workforce issues with other stakeholders, we have made great strides in
creating a strong association to serve
its members and be a collective voice
for our industry.
The HBASE would not be strong
without the generosity of many
volunteers. Without our volunteers,
all of our events from small to large
throughout the year would not be
possible. Thank you to every one of
you who has volunteered this past
year. It goes to show how much we
can accomplish when we all work
together.
The HBASE has a solid history of
charitable giving through our Home
Builders Care Foundation. 2014 saw
the completion of the Charity Home.
The proceeds from this project will
In celebration of my year as your
President, I would like to encourage
you to mark your calendars for our
Holiday Gala on Friday, December 12.
The event will be at the downtown
Holiday Inn with a social beginning
I have enjoyed serving this great
association and want to thank
everyone for all they’ve done to assist
me in 2014. This includes our staff, all
of our event volunteers, committee
chairs and members, the Board of
Directors, and all members of the
Home Builders Association of the Sioux
Empire. I’m very excited to see what
our future holds with our upcoming
president, Culley Lebert. I know he’ll
do an outstanding job. Here’s to a
successful year!

NA TIONA L DIREC TOR REPORT
The following report is from HBASE National Directors, Paul Nelsen of Nelsen Construction and Mel Zelmer
of Zelmer, Inc. who recently attended the NAHB Fall Board Meeting in Phoenix, AZ September 3-6, 2014.
BUILDING MATERIALS SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE
CONSTRUCTION LIABILITY, RISK MANAGEMENT
& BUILDING MATERIALS COMMITTEE.
construction is not the same as the big commercial
projects that go on. They are two different practices
and OSHA rules should not be the same for both.
Robert Denk, Assistant Vice President , Forecasting
and Analysis, NAHB reported that the boom and
bust cycle in materials prices is well represented by
selected material: softwood lumber, OSB and gypsum.
More recently, 2012 and 2013 reflect the beginning
of the housing recovery and the upward pressure
on prices generated by the return of demand to the
market place. Reduced capacity in the wood products
and gypsum industries was responsible for sharp
increases, but by mid-2013 expanding capacity in
the wood products sector has brought prices back
down. Gypsum prices, however, remain elevated.
CONSTRUCTION SAFETY & HEALTH COMMITTEE
Felicia Watson NAHB gave an update on OSHA’s
crystalline silica proposed rule. NAHB proposed
to OSHA to cancel the new proposed rules. It is in
OSHA’s hands, NAHB is waiting to hear back on
where they are going with this.
Felicia also gave an update on the US/ Canada S
oftwood Lumber Agreement. We still do not have
an agreement signed, NAHB suspects there to be
no reason this agreement won’t get resigned.
CONSTRUCTION LIABILITY, RISK MANAGEMENT,
AND BUILDING MATERIALS COMMITTEE
This committee had a group of individuals working
on different contract documents that you can
purchase online. Staff gave a presentation on all the
27 different documents that can be purchased at
NAHB.org, log in to membership and find contract
forms. There are different form packages at different
prices, depending on your needs. There seems to be
lots of lawyers and lawsuits out there, it all comes
back to make sure you are covered , be sure you are
protecting yourself from all angles. It seems like with
every meeting, something pops up because of how
the contract was written.
Staff gave a recap on OSHA’s fall protection and
silica rule. A lot of the same discussion from previous,
nothing new or any changes to report.
BUILDING CODES AND STANDARDS COMMITTEE
sq. ft. (6,000 sq. ft. larger than all of last year)
 Companies that have not been in the
previous 5-6 years have registered this year
(WeatherShield Windows and Doors, GeorgiaPacific and Portland Cement Association, to
name a few)
 Registration is approximately 26% ahead
of September 2013
There is a big push to get all the state and local HBAs
involved in a grassroots effort to talk to our local code
officials. Instead of sending your code officials to the
conference, you can now register online and vote that
way. Fortunately, in Sioux Falls we have a very good
working relationship with our code officials.
There was a lot of conversation on cutting three
board meetings down to two, both sides have good
arguments. They are keeping all three meetings
through 2015. The Board of Directors spoke loud to
the Executive Board on the changes the Executive
Board wants to make. The Board of Directors made it
clear through lots of conversation, some heated, that
NAHB needs to make some changes, some for the
good and some for the bad. Change is coming. Our
January board meeting should be very interesting.

I am a member of the Environmental Issues
Committee and our efforts are still focused on the
WOTUS issue (Waters of the United States). The
House has passed a resolution forcing the EPA to
withdraw their proposed regulation which would

regarding, ‘Do your subs have a safety program also?’. Just prior to the fall meeting I received notification
that I had been appointed to the Conventions and

because OSHA and NAHB ‘s numbers seem to be
different, OSHA needs to understand residential
Conversation with OSHA and the silica rule, seems
to be ongoing discussion, nothing seems to be
happening. OSHA seems to be at a stand still,
they need to decide where it’s headed.

A RECENT SURVEY OF
YOUNGER AMERICANS
ILLUSTRATES THAT
THE GOAL OF HOMEOWNERSHIP REMAINS
AN IMPORTANT PART
OF THE AMERICAN
DREAM.
The economic future of Millennials is key
to the future of housing demand. A record
number of individuals aged 18 to 34 years are
delaying household formation as a consequence of the Great Recession. In a recent
Eye on Housing blog post, this situation was
referred to as the “Great Delay,” as slow wage
growth and rising student loan burdens have
reduced attainment of traditional goals
associated with the American Dream,
including marriage and homeownership.
An important research question is whether
these delays represent deferrals due to
economic conditions or true changes in
preferences and goals.
A recent survey from the Demand Institute provides new evidence. The study
surveyed 1,000 18- to 29-year-olds about
current conditions and market preferences.
The findings indicate that homeownership
remains an important long-term goal.
Among the findings for Millennials:


Over the next five years, 8.3 million new
Millennial households will form.
74% plan to move over the next five
years, with the top reason being need for
better housing.





64% expect to be married in five years
and 55% expect to have kids.


75% believe homeownership is an important long-term goal and 73% believe
ownership is an excellent investment.

24% currently own a home and another
60% plan to purchase.
36% expect their next home to be a multifamily rental, while another 36% expect
it to be a single-family owner-occupied
residence.
48% prefer their next home to be in the
suburbs, while 38% want urban locations.
88% own a car.
Student loans do delay homeownership
(but college raises lifetime incomes).
44% think it will be difficult to qualify for
a mortgage.
