Assembly Resolution No. 779

BY: M. of A. Hunter

 MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
 May 2025, as Building Safety Month in the State of
 New York

 WHEREAS, Our State is committed to recognizing that our growth and
strength depends on the safety and essential role our homes, buildings
and infrastructure play, both in everyday life and when disasters
strike; and

 WHEREAS, Our confidence in the resilience of these buildings that
make up our community is achieved through the devotion of vigilant
guardians--building safety and fire prevention officials, architects,
engineers, builders, tradespeople, design professionals, laborers,
plumbers and others in the construction industry--who work year-round to
ensure the safe construction of buildings; and

 WHEREAS, These guardians are dedicated members of the International
Code Council, a nonprofit that brings together local, state,
territorial, tribal and federal officials who are experts in the built
environment to create and implement the highest-quality codes and
standards to protect us in the buildings where we live, learn, work and
play; and

 WHEREAS, These modern building codes and standards include
safeguards to protect the public from hazards such as hurricanes,
snowstorms, tornadoes, wildland fires, floods and earthquakes; and

 WHEREAS, Building Safety Month is sponsored by the International
Code Council to remind the public about the critical role of our
communities' largely unknown protectors of public safety--our code
officials--who assure us of safe, sustainable and affordable buildings
that are essential to our prosperity; and

 WHEREAS, "Game On!," the theme for Building Safety Month 2025,
encourages us all to get involved and raise awareness about building
safety on a personal, local and global scale; and

 WHEREAS, Each year, in observance of Building Safety Month, people
all over the world are asked to consider the commitment to improve
building safety, resilience and economic investment at home and in the
community, and to acknowledge the essential service provided to all of
us by local, state, tribal, territorial, and federal building safety and
fire prevention departments, in protecting lives and property; now,
therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim May 2025, as Building
Safety Month in the State of New York; 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.
