  Message from the Chair
  Robert Manning

      

Welcome to a new year, a new administration, and new adventures and challenges for ELULS.  Your Executive Council continues to devote a great deal of time and attention to the issues and events that we understand are important to you (and by all means, please let us know if we can or need to re-direct our efforts).  Jim Porter and Vivien Monaco are very active in reaching out to the Law Schools around the state, encouraging more interactions and access to/from students.  Erin Deady is continuing to develop CLE functions, the latest being a January 16 event titled “Environmental and Land Use Considerations for Real Estate Transactions” (a joint production with the Real Property Section) and another event in late March focusing on “Hot Topics: Projects and Cases.” 

And hopefully you have all visited the Treatise Online (thanks to Gary Hunter, Joe Richards and others).  If you are interested in publishing, Gary Oldehoff is accepting ELULS articles for the Florida Bar Journal, Enola Brown would welcome articles for the Newsletter, and Gary Hunter and David Jordan are looking for editors and authors for the treatise.  I really appreciate the hard work of the Council members, and we all are very interested in your feedback.
