Dear MS ASLA Members,
It is now time for you to elect your incoming trustee, as my trustee term

They are

John Milstead. Please

Thank you for allowing me to serve you over the past several years as both
your chapter trustee and as president prior. I hope the visioning and
strategic planning that I have attempted to provide for our chapter will
continue to prosper and develop as it strengthens the membership value for
you. Your executive committee officers have shown tremendous enthusiasm and
dedication to creating a stronger chapter during my tenure, and it’s been an
honor to work with each of them.
Many thanks to each of you that have advised me and provided the kind of
quality input that has given shape to our chapter. Your willingness to
recommend, inform, counsel, advise and participate in chapter functions has
strengthened our future, not only as a chapter but also at a national level.
ASLA national has made tremendous improvements as a society over the past
several years, also. Our efforts to shape national policies and practices on
growth and development are ever-increasing and recognized. The board of
trustees has provided the necessary leadership to strategic initiatives and
programs such as, HALS (Historic American Landscape Survey), ASLA Chapter
Disaster Preparedness Handbook, GreenRoof Design, Green Infrastructure, Low
Impact Design, SITES Initiative and Ecological System Services, LEED
(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), ASLA Contracts, LA CES
(Landscape Architecture Continuing Education System), as well as Climate
Change to name a few.
Your ASLA Chapter, National Board of Trustees, Executive Committee, and
Staff are doing a tremendous job for the Landscape Architecture profession.
Again, thank you and I am honored that you chose me to represent our chapter
as trustee for the past three years.
Sincerely,
Robert Michael Gammill, ASLA
Mississippi Chapter Trustee
