Senate Resolution No. 1853

BY: Senator FAHY

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 April 12-18, 2026, as Architecture Week in the State
 of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official weeks and days designated to raise awareness of important
issues and professions that shape the quality of life of the citizens of
New York State; and

 WHEREAS, In keeping with its long-standing traditions, this
Legislative Body is justly proud to memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to
proclaim April 12-18, 2026, as Architecture Week in the State of New
York, in conjunction with the national observance of Architecture Week;
and

 WHEREAS, Architecture plays a vital role in shaping the built
environment of our communities, influencing the safety, sustainability,
resiliency, accessibility, and overall quality of life for millions of
New Yorkers; and

 WHEREAS, Architects are licensed professionals entrusted with
protecting the public health, safety, and welfare, and their work
contributes to the design of schools, hospitals, homes, workplaces,
transportation systems, and civic institutions that serve communities
across the State of New York; and

 WHEREAS, New York has long been recognized as a national leader in
climate action, and architects are central to achieving the state's
goals through the design of resilient infrastructure, energy-efficient
buildings, and communities capable of adapting to a changing climate;
and

 WHEREAS, Throughout New York State, architects work in partnership
with public officials, community leaders, engineers, planners, and
developers to deliver projects that support economic growth, strengthen
neighborhoods, and improve the daily lives of residents; and

 WHEREAS, Architecture Week provides an opportunity to recognize the
contributions of architects, celebrate the value of thoughtful design,
and encourage the next generation of New Yorkers to explore careers in
architecture and the design professions; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 12-18, 2026, as
Architecture Week in the State of New York, in conjunction with the
national observance of Architecture Week; and be it further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
