Testimonials
Larry Horowitz, President,
Responsible Development
Ensuring that new development is compatible with the natural environment is a major challenge facing communities in Western Washington. Pressure to accommodate growth has adversely impacted our coastlines, watersheds, and quality of life.
Water Planning Matters has shown a unique ability to hold new projects accountable, taking strategic action to ensure compliance with regulations that preserve our region’s unique ecological and environmental functions. I’m so impressed with their persistence and tenacity, fighting for all who call this area home.

Birch Bay Leader
Water has no boundaries….it disregards, rather than respects lines on a map, jurisdictional boundaries as well as political lines.
Water is a shared resource rather than a source of conflict. Water management involves planning, coordination, protection that addresses pollution and ecosystem degradation across borders.
That is why I am grateful and want to thank the team at Water Planning Matters for their valiant efforts to hold the city of Blaine (jurisdictions) responsible for protection and pollution management of our shared water resources across city borders and development boundaries.
Lisa Guthrie, Birch Bay Community Leader

The quality and volume of Water Planning Matters' work is exceptional—on par with that of a large law firm employing numerous staff and billing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Your documents are highly professional: well-written, clear, thoroughly researched, grounded in evidence and science and meticulously formatted. Truly incredible.
