2019 TPP SEMINAR AND EDUCATION WEEK RECAP

The 2019 TPP Seminar and Education Week drew a large crowd this year to Kissimmee, Florida on December 9 th -13th, 2019. We had 23 professionals attend IAAO Workshop 151 and 77 professionals at the seminar. We enjoyed a packed educational week! Prior to the seminar, we offered IAAO Workshop 151: National USPAP, taught by Kevin Hayes, MAI, CAE, RES, CFE. This workshop does fulfill one of the educational requirements for an IAAO designa- tion. One of the goals of the chapter is to promote a well-rounded educational offering for all chapter stakeholders. If you are interested in a specific course or topic, or need more info regarding an IAAO designation, please let us know. On Wednesday afternoon Nils Hallberg, CFE and TPP Steering Committee chair, welcomed attendees to Kissimmee and the seminar. The two and a half day seminar is designed to cover topics directly re- lated to Tangible Personal Property. It gives the professionals in this field a chance to network and connect with fellow TPP colleagues and learn more about what is trending in this field. On Thursday, the theme was Industry speaking about topics in their respective fields. Ruben Miranda from Duff and Phelps gave the group an update on 5G and how it could be rolled out. Tom Flowers from FPL gave a presentation on their growing solar development across the state. Will Shepherd gave two presentations on TPP and Assemblage Costs and a TPP Legal Update as the second presenta- tion. Finally, at the end of the day we once again played TPP Jeopardy with Steve Weissman as our host with Neoto McCullough from Escambia County retaining her title as champion. The conference ended Friday, with Steve Weissman moderating a presentation done by Palm Beach, Escambia and Orange Counties on various ways to use technology, may it be online filing or field in- spections in the TPP department. Justin Edwards moderated the Best Practices panel and we closed the seminar with David Adomatis winning a free stay at the hotel. Opening the Wednesday agenda was David Adomatis doing a presentation on Excel. Following David was Gwen Klaiber going over Billboard valuation.

For those members that missed the seminar, presenter materials can be found on the FCIAAO web- site, under the Members link. We hope to see everyone for Winter 2020! Details to Come!
