4,000-Member architects association chapter holds meeting to discuss controversy over the dismissal of its 14-year leader. A vote to recommend rehire failed with 149 yes votes, 104 no votes and 57 abstentions.
Delegates at the American Institute of Architects annual meeting late last month in New York City resoundingly passed an anti-abuse and anti-harassment resolution to amend the AIA Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.
Now passed by Congress, the bill bestows one of its biggest and most controversial gifts—a 20% deduction for pass-through revenue—on the majority of U.S. firms that are partnerships, S-corporations and sole proprietorships.
