It has come to the knowledge that the Building Industry Association of Southeastern Michigan will bestow honor upon the top residential industry professionals in southeastern Michigan on Friday, April 3. This will be done along with the Spring Home Garden Show at the Rock Financial Showplace in Novi. Who is the sponsor of the 2008 Leadership Recognition and Awards Night event? Well, it is the Bank of America.
Speaking on this, Darshan S. Grewal, 2009 President of BIA stated, “Throughout this tumultuous period, our honorees have continued to successfully advance our industry and homeownership in Southeastern Michigan.” “These honorees set a positive example for others in the home building industry.”
Who are the dignified recipients then? Well, there is Paul C. Robertson Jr. of Robertson Brothers in Bloomfield Hills who through receiving the highest honor will be introduced into the association’s Hall of Fame. It is to be noted that the Builders of the Year award will be presented to Joe Saylor and Roger Saylor of Saylor Building Company in Troy. Reason? They are already acclaimed because of their dedication to the association and contributions to the home building industry.
