In Process! Several proposed Bellingham developments are at critical points in the permit process. Here are the highlights:

Location: Fairhaven, South of Harris Ave. between 8th and 9th streets
Building: Mixed use commercial and residential
Other: Jorge Vega, Bellingham Planning Director, approved use of the portion of the site which is between 100 and 200 feet from Padden Creek. A permit to build closer to the creek was approved previously, but has been appealed by opponents, so we are waiting to see how that plays out.

Location: 1129 Cornwall Ave (Cornwall Ave & Chestnut St)
Building: 11-story building with commercial space at street level, 90 condos upstairs and 2 levels of underground parking with a total of 155 spaces.
Total square feet: 240,000
Height: 110 feet
You say: Comments on the environmental impact of this building will be taken until Nov 3.

Location: 72 acres at the north end of Cordata Parkway, along Kline Road.
Building: 429 houses, a combination of detached houses, duplexes and triplexes.
You say: Tell the city planners what you think until Nov. 4, or go to the hearing that will be scheduled by Hearing Examiner Dawn Sturwold, 676-6982.

We are also interested in what you think about these developments. Please feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts.
