7/26/24 – The Texas Self Storage Association (TXSSA) announced updates to its board of directors for 2024-25 in the July 2024 edition of its official “Self-Storage Report” newsletter. The roster now includes three new members. Two other members are returning for an additional term.

The TXSSA Board comprises four officers (president, vice president, treasurer and secretary), the immediate-past president, six owner/operator directors and one vendor representative. All 12 positions are unpaid. Owner/operator directors serve staggered three-years terms, while the vendor representative serves a one-year term. The nominating committee solicits suggestions from members and strives to recommend candidates who complement the existing board to represent the full spectrum of membership, the newsletter stated.

This year, two new self-storage owner/operators were added to the board. They are Vianney Jasik of Trusted Self Storage Professionals and Edwin Roark of Roark Properties Inc. The new vendor representative is Michael Johnson of Versal Partners.

Returning to serve a full three-year term after being appointed to fill a vacant position mid-year in 2023 is Nathan Bennett of UTEX Storage Partners. Also returning to serve another three-year term is Erik Tolpo of Tallwood Storage.

Established in 1986, the TXSSA is dedicated to enhancing the quality of the self-storage industry in Texas. It provides opportunities for members to increase their knowledge of the business through education, research, discussion and exchange of information.
