Amanda Acheson Sustainable Building Program Manager Coconino County Community Development
"The decrease in new construction in northern Arizona has prompted many residents and builders to discover new ways to participate in the changing housing and development markets," says Acheson, who educates citizens and businesses to develop sustainable building practices in the Flagstaff area. "By turning toward energy efficient retrofits and the addition of renewable energy systems, the communities of northern Arizona are able to save money and help ensure economic vitality in the region."
