Comprehensive Scheme of Harbor Improvements

The Port's Comprehensive Scheme of Harbor Improvement Plan describes proposed improvements to Port facilities located in Blaine, Sumas, Bellingham International Airport, Squalicum Harbor, the Waterfront District and Fairhaven  which are contemplated to be developed over time. 

The Comprehensive Scheme of Harbor Improvement Plan  is intended to be updated periodically. Site specific plans or master plans may be prepared for various sub-areas or regions of the Port district. Regional, sub area plans or existing master plans provide valuable history and may have more detailed information about Port properties and facilities then the Comprehensive Scheme of Harbor Improvements; and are retained as reference documents to the extent that they adopted by the Board of Commissioners. Previously adopted Master Plans include:
 
  

• 2015 Bellingham International Airport Master Plan - May 2015
• Blaine Wharf District Master Plan - November 2007
• Bellingham's Waterfront District Sub-Area Plan - December 2013  Draft Update 2018
