Wes Jones, 2009 AEMA President
Welcome to the 2009 AEMA website. As the President of the Association for 2009, I would like to make it clear that AEMA is an Association for it's members and to ensure that all Accessibility and Residential products are safe, reliable and that as members we take into consideration the end user as our partners as well as our customers.
So far in 2009, we have updated the current website, which has been on-going for the last year behind the scenes with the guidance of Mike McKinley. This has been a trying 12 months with the web host to get information so we may update the membership section as well as the code section of the web site.
Kevin Brinkman of TK Access has been busy at code meetings, representing AEMA to help ensure that the codes stay favorable to the Accessibility Industry. There have been several changes proposed, so keep watching the AEMA Newsletter for updates. The newsletter is usually a quarterly production.
The current slate of officers are listed within this website, so please feel free to contact any of these individuals for answers to any questions concerning this Association, but more importantly we need your input on what you or your company is looking for from the Association. The current Board is in it's 3rd year after changing AEMA's composition. We need your guidance on the future direction to steer this Association.
Please take time to Login in the members section of the site and go to the code section. See if this information for your State or Province is correct. If not, please email the correct information to wjones@lift-aids.com or mike.mckinley@mckinleyelevator.com and we will forward to the web master for him to change on the web site. The code section is the most out dated portion of the site I believe. Please feel free to let us know of any other changes that need to be made.
I appreciate the opportunity to serve as the President of this Association and am looking forward to serving the Accessibility and Residential Industry. Again, please feel free to contact me with any suggestions.
Best regards,
Wes Jones
