After serving the public for over two decades from behind the counter at Whatcom County Planning and Development Services (PDS), I resigned in 2000 to make my land use expertise available to the public as a private consultant. I can now be your advocate to help you through the very complicated process of developing your land in Whatcom County. My son Jesse joined the company in 2008 and now has 13 years of land use consulting experience.
Qualifications:
We can provide these very unique services as I was the primary, and often only, Subdivision Administrator for Whatcom County, from 1973 to 2000. As my career began when zoning and subdivision regulations were brand new, I developed and implemented most of the land division procedures and interpretations currently in use. Quite simply, there is no one else who can offer you a better chance of getting your project approved in Whatcom County. (No one can guarantee any approvals as staff, regulations and operating policies are constantly changing).
Land Divisions we can help you with are:
= Short Plat & Long Plat Development
= Exempt Land Divisions
Other Services we provide:
= Boundary Line Adjustments
= Lot of Record Applications
= Deed History Review
= Conditional Use Permits
= Rezones
= Comprehensive Plan Amendments
= Shoreline Permits
= Help with code violations & compliance issues
= Zoning Interpretation
= Accessory Dwelling Unit Permits
= Building Permits
= Mobile Home Permits
= Feasibility Studies
= Long-range Planning
= Lot Design

Hello,
I am interested in having a retail unit developed on a vacant lot in Bellingham. I was referred to you by my agent at REMAX, Rick Moore, and am interested in learning more about what your company can help me with.
I look forward to hearing from you, thank you.
Sincerely,
Yin

I am looking to build a family cabin in Point Roberts. I have looked at properties with 2 different lot numbers under a single owner. Are these already subdivided and are 2 different entities? I am in Canada and not certain of Whatcom practices.
