EXPLORING RESILIENCY

AND SUSTAINABILITY DESIGN

Since 98 people were killed in the collapse of the Champlain Towers South condominium building in Surfside, Fla., Dawn M. Bauman at Community Associations Institute has led efforts on the local, state and national level to develop policy changes for safer condominium buildings.

“For condominium buildings, owners must make sure that regular maintenance is happening. 

Regular, scheduled maintenance must identify building vulnerability so modifications can be made to make a safer, stronger building,” she said.

“Environmental sustainably can be as simple as changing windows so they are more secure and more energy efficient.

That can make a huge change in the cost of maintaining a building with a relatively small investment.”
