Engineers Week a Week-long Celebration in Colorado
ACEC Colorado was extremely active in celebrating National Engineers Week, beginning on February 16th with a proclamation honoring Engineers Week signed by Gov. Jared Polis.
On Thursday, ACEC/CO hosted more than 40 engineers during its 2020 Legislative Day, which offered members the opportunity to listen to a tribute to Engineers Week from the floor of the Colorado House by State Representative Brianna Titone. The Legislative Day also featured a tour of the capitol building and committee hearing visits.
The day culminated with 10 state legislators attending a private reception with M.O. members to discuss issues of common concern related to business practices, transportation, water resources, energy and vertical design.
On February 19, the ACEC/Colorado hosted a Colorado Business Roundtable for building owners and managers. The event was led by a representative from the City & County of Denver and included engineers and a contractor providing details about key changes to the city’s newly adopted Building & Fire Code Amendments.
