NAIOP’s Legislative Advocacy Work in 2018

Based in Forest Lake, Minnesota, Gaughan is a commercial real estate management and construction company. Outside of their operations in Minnesota, Gaughan maintains memberships with several national industry organizations, such as NAIOP.

NAIOP is a network of commercial real estate developers in North America that advocates for legislative action on industry issues on behalf of its members. The organization works with elected officials to ensure the formulation and implementation of policies that support the commercial real estate sector. 

In 2018, NAIOP had three priority legislative issues on its agenda: infrastructure and transportation; capital and credit availability; and environment and energy efficiency. With regard to infrastructure, NAIOP supported increased funding toward the nation’s infrastructure, including its critical transportation systems. The organization also advocated for maintenance and repair of ailing infrastructure. 

On both the capital and credit fronts, NAIOP advocated for fair oversight by financial regulators to prevent discriminatory practices that hurt commercial real estate ventures and prevent access to credit by industry stakeholders. Lastly, NAIOP advocated for energy efficiency through its support for the EPA’s Brownfields Program.
