CHICAGO, IL — The Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) announced the appointments of two Midwest businesspeople to key executive positions in the organization. The announcement was made at a late June convention in Chicago.

John P. Kelly, RPA, executive vice president for the Ryan Companies U.S. Inc., Minneapolis, MN, was sworn in as BOMA president-elect. Since 1976, Kelly has been involved at all levels of the organization in both BOMA/Minneapolis and BOMA/St. Paul.
