The resolution recognizes and commends the faculty members and research assistants from the Auburn University School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape Architecture (APLA) for their exemplary work in creating over 150 miniature scale models of the new Alabama State House. This new building, commissioned by the Alabama Legislature and designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects and Goodwyn Mills Cawood, is set to replace the existing 1963 structure and enhance the urban complex that includes the Alabama State Capitol. The models, which serve as commemorative tokens for legislators, were produced through a collaborative effort involving APLA faculty, student research assistants, and the information technology department.

The resolution highlights the qualifications and contributions of key individuals involved in the project, including Associate Professor Robert Sproull, Assistant Professors Frank Hu and Ernesto Bilbao, and Engineering Tech Jon Byler, along with several student research assistants. Their work not only showcases their expertise in architecture, landscape design, and engineering but also emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in producing high-quality, detailed models that help the public understand the significance of the new State House within the broader context of Montgomery's urban landscape. The resolution concludes by acknowledging the dedication and ingenuity of the APLA team, reflecting the highest standards of academic excellence and public service.
