During the covid pandemic, when local counties did not want to recognize the housing industry as essential, and we faced the risk of being shut down, Phil was instrumental in making his voice heard to keep the housing industry recognized as essential, allowing home building operations to continue through the pandemic.’ - John Porizek, M/I Homes of DFW, Dallas BA President
