SAN JUAN COUNTY  • RESIDENTIAL • LOPEZ ISLAND

As part of a multi-disciplinary team, NES successfully obtained a Conditional Use Permit to construct the first phase of a multi-family affordable housing project in Lopez Village on Lopez Island. NES provided preliminary feasibility assessments and collaborated with the team’s architects and engineers to strategically configure a site plan that  avoids and minimizes impacts on the wetland-constrained site.

Sunset Village

Sunset Village in Bellingham is a subdivision that contains 47 townhomes and 13 single-family cottages. NES provided a critical areas assessment and wetland mitigation plan to obtain permits from the City of Bellingham, Department of Ecology, and U.S. Army Corps. Compensatory mitigation designed by NES included a combination of on-site wetland enhancement and establishment of an off-site advance mitigation project which has since facilitated the expedient permitting of multiple additional projects for the developer.
