An Act to Amend An Act Respecting Building Officials and the New Brunswick Building Officials Association

The NBBOA is in the process of amending our private members bill “An Act Respecting Building Officials and the New Brunswick Building Officials Association” to change our certification marks from ‘CBCO’ to ‘NBCBO’ in order to alleviate some confusion over the licensing of certification marks in Canada. This has been an ongoing issue since 2002.


Building Safety Month - May 2011

Through your municipality or NBBOA, I encourage you and your respective employers to participate in the annual 'Building Safety' campaign. By advising our industry partners, your Community and the people of New Brunswick, we can not only advance the importance of Building Safety, but we may also demonstrate the important role Building Officials play in creating and maintaining safe public areas, work environments and family homes. This is an annual initiative that is developed and supported through the ACBOA. Please find attached some mini-posters that could be put up around your offices or community to raise awareness of what we as building officials do. Raising awareness for constructing safe buildings is difficult.
Remember… “When we do our jobs right - Nothing happens!”
