The highlight of the Tuesday Luncheon will be the presentation of the 2009 Housing North Carolina Awards, recognizing the state’s most outstanding recent rental, home ownership and supportive housing developments. Sponsored for 20 years by the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency, the annual competition is sure to spark new ideas.
