Sustainable development incorporates design techniques to reduce the impact of development on our natural resources. It is a sound practice that results in cleaner water and protection of natural habitats.

To accomplish sound development some very simple strategies can be utilized. These include:

• Orientation of a new home
• Natural wind breaks
• Preservation of natural soil and vegetation
• Vegetated bio-retention basins
• Grassed swales to eliminate drainage pipe
• Vegetated filter strips between development and resource areas

We are familiar with the State of Massachusetts’ Smart Growth Initiatives and promote these strategies. Our expertise in this area can create a richer, more sustainable project that provides long term protection of our resources.
