Southeastern Massachusetts Building Officials Association (SEMBOA)

SEMBOA protects the safety of citizens of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by promoting the enforcement of state laws and regulations, local by-laws and ordinances that relate to or regulate the use, construction, or inspection of buildings or other structures.
