Housing Nantucket aims to provide low and moderate income residents of Nantucket with comfortable, affordable housing that is also energy efficient. The goal of this project was to research ways in which Housing Nantucket could improve the energy efficiency of their rental properties, expand their current property maintenance database, and plan a new eco-friendly office site to meet their ever growing demands. The final recommendations to housing Nantucket include a newly designed Access database, a list of improvements to be made to rental properties, an energy behaviors brochure to be distributed to tenants with Island wide applications, and suggested improvements to their office site plans.
