NAIOP Honors Late Planning Director

Pederson says that Moulton, who died at age 53 last year of amyloidosis, a rare blood disorder, would have been pleased by the award. Pederson went on to say that groups such as NAIOP seldom honor government officials this way, because they see them as hindering their development opportunities and making life more difficult for them.

Moulton, Pederson tells GlobeSt.com, didn't see growth as inherently wrong. But she knew it needed to be managed.He says the commercial real estate industry ought to be as objective and as reflective as Moulton was, and should spend more time looking at the impact they are having, rather than just trying to take advantage of market conditions.
