BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA
A PROCLAMATION BUILDING SAFETY MONTH
WHEREAS: WHEREAS: WHEREAS: WHEREAS: WHEREAS: THEREFORE:
Building Safety Month serves to remind Georgians about the crucial role of those who assure safe, efficient, and livable buildings ; and
Our state's continued efforts to address the critical issues of safety, energy efficiency, and sustainability, both in everyday life and in times of natural disaster, give us confidence that our structures are safe and sound; and
We derive confidence in the construction of Georgia's buildings thanks to building safety code enforcement personnel, such as: building safety and fire prevention officials, architects, engineers, builders, laborers, and others in the construction industry. These professionals play a vital role in ensuring the safety of our critical infrastructure; and
Construction codes provide safeguards to protect Americans from dangerous situations, such as snowstorms in the North, hurricanes in the Southeast, tornadoes in the Midwest, forest fires in the Southwest, and earthquakes on the West Coast. As a result, construction codes enhance the safety and security of our nation's citizens; and
"Building Safety Month: Maximizing Resilience, Minimizing Risks" is the theme for Building Safety Month 2014 and encourages all Georgians and Americans to raise awareness of the importance of building safety and to take the appropriate steps to ensure the places we live, learn, work, worship, and play are safe and sustainable; now
I, NATHAN DEAL, Governor of the State of Georgia, do hereby proclaim May 2014 as BUILDING SAFETY MONTH in Georgia and encourage residents to participate in Building Safety Month activities and efforts to improve building safety at home and in their respective communities.
In witness thereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the Executive Department to be affixed this 5th day of February in the year of our Lord two thousand fourteen.
