Who We Are
This council drives the issues relating to urban building for both for-sale product and for-lease product. Most of the emphasis is on downtown, but can be for other pockets within San Diego County. This council seeks BIA members with expertise or projects in an urban region.

What We Do
The Public Policy Council prioritizes and manages issues that legislatively affect the building industry. The PPC reports to the BIA executive committee and board of directors.
Appointed by the BIA Chair each year, our members are actively engaged at the local government level throughout San Diego County and have the acumen to influence important outcomes. Each member has policy-related knowledge, access and influence in markets throughout the San Diego region.
