NEW
MEXICO HOUSING
This project, in conjunction with an enlightened New Mexico housing
developer, reflects our collective commitment to sustainable design
and building. Their on going mission to incorporate sustainable
development and building techniques into all of their affordable
housing communities is exemplary and should provide inspiration
to much of the development we see in our own area that lags behind
these pressing issues. Using the Green Communities Initiative,
this effort yields results in significant benefits to the environment
and the community such as: reduction in the consumption of natural
resources, reduction in waste to landfills, reduction in the consumption
of fossil fuels and as a result cleaner air, healthier living
environments and reduction in resident utility costs. This project,
for 55 senior housing units, has been awarded financing and will
begin construction in the fall of 2007.
