President's Message

Olympia

Well, here it is … the races begin!!

We had a great meeting with Mark Gjurasic, WLA Lobbyist, at our July Zoom Meeting! He was able to provide valuable information to help each of us make our votes count for the housing industry. See pages 8–10.

If you have any questions now or in the future, please let your CCRA Board know, and we will get the answers. Elaine Armstrong, CCRA Vice President, vicepresident@ccrawa.org, is in close contact with our lobbyists and WLA and will remain so throughout the year. Please contact her anytime—and especially if you want to visit Olympia! I promise it will be very informative and enjoyable with Elaine holding the reins.

The Legislative emails will start soon to keep you informed. We had a very positive session in 2023, and we want to continue in that direction! Please verify your email address with Barbara Carson, Membership Director (membership@ccrawa.org) to make sure that CCRA emails reach you right away. The CCRA Board wants to thank each of you for your willingness to participate … Past, Future and Present!

Set up an email group of friends, associates, and neighbors that you feel would benefit from the Legislative information. They do not have to be property owners or landlords—they could also help by spreading the word!!

Quinn Posner, CCRA Attorney, will be your speaker for September’s Zoom Meeting. He will be going over the eviction process and security deposit reporting, plus he will review some of the changes that have taken place in the past year and a half. You don’t want to miss it!

I got a lot of information out in this short message so I’m going to close and will see you at our next Zoom Meeting, September 24th at 7p.m.
