Ron Englehart has been awarded the Life Membership of the Housing Industry Association.
The presentation was made at the Industry Outlook Breakfast by National President Ross Lang, in the presence of a big crowd and special guests including past HIA Victorian Presidents and the Premier The Hon Daniel Andrews.
Ross stated that the single greatest honour that can be conferred on a member of HIA is election to the status of life member . A means by which HIA recognises to a select few, in a very public way the exceptional contribution made by an individual to the Housing Industry.
Ron has been a member of the HIA since the early 1980s and has been personally involved with HIA Committees for more than 30 years. Ron was the inaugural Chair of the Planning, Environment and Development Committee and the HIA’s first national GreenSmart Leader.
A recipient of the Centenary medal for service to building, design and construction through ecological sustainability and has presented papers on low energy housing and marketing at national and international conferences and exhibitions.
