Minneapolis, MN (IBNN NEWS/Business News/March 13, 2012)…In breaking news, Jerry Steele has been named the president of the NAMC-UM chapter in Minnesota-Upper Midwest.
Steele told IBNN NEWS in an exclusive interview, “The NAMC-UM has had access, now we must create a foundation. My goal is to bring the NAMC back as a force to address contract compliance, assistance for local minority contractors and to create a top-of-mind awareness campaign for the organization.”
Steele, the CEO of Enviro-Tech, a Green Construction company is on the cutting edge of technology as it pertains to affordable “green” construction.
In IBNN’s opinion, the National Association of Minority Contractors – Upper Midwest has been overlooked by agencies like the Minneapolis Foundation who specifically wrote in a grant requirement to Urban Homeworks which said make sure the NAMC is involved in the 2011 tornado recovery work. There has been no report issued about the outcome.
The always-diplomatic Jerry Steele refused comment on the situation.
MnDOT – here comes the NAMC-UM.
