Tallahassee
As the Chief Lobbyist for the Florida Home Builders Association from 1983 to 2006, Richard Gentry championed legislative, regulatory, and political initiatives that to this day continue to result in literally millions of dollars in saving on development, operational and construction costs for Florida developers and builders, which directly correlates to making housing, apartments, condominiums, and light commercial structures less expensive and more affordable for homeowners and end users.( Elected to Hall in 2016)
