In a move designed to generate additional participation in two key industry awards programs, BOMA Oakland/East Bay and BOMA San Francisco are now collaborating to co-host the BOMA Bay Area The Outstanding Building of the Year (TOBY) Award, and the EARTH Awards. BOMA Oakland/East Bay will open its TOBY program to BOMA San Francisco members, and conversely, BOMA San Francisco will expand the EARTH Awards to include commercial properties in Oakland/East Bay. BOMA Oakland/East Bay will take primary responsibility for managing the TOBY program, and BOMA San Francisco will manage the EARTH Awards program.
Representatives from BOMA Oakland/East Bay will host an orientation of the TOBY program for all interested BOMA San Francisco members on Wednesday, September 8 at 2 p.m. in BOMA San Francisco's conference room.

A property management team needs to be prepared to respond to emergency situations and, to do so, must have a clear understanding of what resources they have on hand. Several properties in the Financial District have enough staff to be self-sufficient; however, the majority of the properties have only a few personnel on staff. As such, it’s important for all property management teams to partner with adjacent properties to determine if a mutual aid arrangement can be established in advance of an emergency occurrence. Communication and knowledge are paramount to being prepared for any emergency (e.g., building specific or City-wide) and a neighborhood group of three or four properties will greatly improve and strengthen emergency preparedness for the entire group.
