PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Dear readers,

The STA has been busy the first quarter of 2021, and looking forward to many virtual events as well as a golf outing.

In January and February, we held two important presentations which were recorded, and I urge all of our members to take a peek at them:

STA Legislative Roundtable Discussion – a number of senators and assembly members, many of whom are friends of STA and the construction industry, were on the call to discuss important issues happening in 2021 and beyond.

STA General Contractor and Public Agency Upcoming Opportunities Presentation – prior to our Speed Meetings, our participating general contractors and public agencies talked about their upcoming opportunities for subcontractors. Presenters included Turner Construction, Citnalta Construction Corp., E.W. Howell Construction Group, Structure Tone, Holt Construction, Hunter Roberts Construction Group, NYC School Construction Authority and AECOM Tishman.

For the next quarter of 2021, we have some more exciting events:

• On March 31, Gallagher Insurance will be putting on a very informative webinar on the New York State Scaffold Law.
• During the last week of April, we will have a construction technology webinar presented by Autodesk.
• The STA Annual Golf Outing is scheduled for Tuesday, June 1! This in-person event will allow for networking, and some relaxing time in the sun. The STA and Wheatley Hills Golf Club will take every precaution for COVID-19 and social distancing.
• On Thursday, June 10, the STA will hold our Annual General Membership Meeting!

I look forward to “seeing” many of you at these events.

Very best,

Joe Leo

President, STA Board of Directors
