faxes and seminars. SSAM keeps each member informed about legislation,
changes in government regulations, and current trends in the industry.
Effective Legislative Action
Under the guidelines established by the SSAM board of directors, the

the progress of legislation that affects the self-storage industry and
contributes input to assure that our viewpoints are represented,
understood and protected. Members are kept informed about the progress
of legislation that could affect their business.
Government Relations

understanding and dealing with the myriad of agencies and departments
that create and implement our laws. For that reason, the association
functions as a liaison between you (as a business) and the bureaucracy
that regulates our industry.
