2020 FCIAAO AWARD WINNERS

Lifetime Achievement Award

With a majority vote, the award may be conferred by the FCIAAO Executive Board and presented to a Regular, Subscribing or Associate member (in good standing with at least 15 years of FCIAAO mem- bership) who has made significant contributions to the Chapter through active participation in its ac- tivities and who has made an outstanding contribution to the realization of the FCIAAO mission in his or her career.

The first recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award is someone who has supported the Chapter for many years. Over the years Gaylord “Jay” Wood has given his time and effort to the Chapter by presenting legal updates at our Conferences and Seminars. Anytime a complex as- sessment issue arises in Florida you can always count on Jay to have an opinion and give a well-educated take on how the issue at hand could affect other aspects of appraisal. If you look back at the last 30+years of appraisal cases in Florida you will find Jay's name on a lot of them, rep- resenting Florida Property Appraisers.

The second recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award is a Past President of the Chapter. Russell Counts was on the board dur- ing 2005-2010, Russell helped maintain the TPP Conference dur- ing the economic downturn. He also served on the Real Estate steering committee after his board term was up around 2016 and continues to support our mission of offering a high level of educa- tion opportunities to our members.

FCIAAO members are encouraged to nominate fellow members to be voted upon by the FCIAAO Ex- ecutive Board. The 2021 Nominations are now being accepted. Forms are available on the Chapter website HERE and must be submitted 60 days prior to the to the FCIAAO Annual Conference.
