Welcome Our Newest Member

With the recent completion of the schematic design phase of the project, Sarah and I sat down and finalized our choice for the General Construction position. After reviewing the various submittals during the RFQ period, as well as a number of follow-up interviews, we are excited to welcome Paul Wilson and his crew at Tamarack Construction (www.tamarackconstruction.com). Well versed in both energy efficient projects (SIP diehard) and a determination to ooze customer service, it was the right decision for our project. Paul is presently being brought up to speed on the project with a flurry of emails by me. Recaps of the previous Charette meetings, overviews of our expectations on the project, as well as material ideas, will culminate with working side by side through the Design Development stage of the project, through to physical construction and completion. The flood gates are about to open as we identify materials, make concrete decision on moving forward, and start to document the exciting particulars of what goes into a Green Build.

Stay tuned for more...
