Abstract

The Bellingham International Airport located in Bellingham, Washington in Whatcom County, has a history dating back to 1941 and is currently owned by the Port of Bellingham. The Port of Bellingham is currently looking to expand its property and is opening up to commercial users in order to create jobs and economic growth within the community. They have a current project underway with the Hotel Services Group, LLC to implement the construction of a hotel. The main objective is to construct a Holiday Inn Brand hotel next to the Bellingham International Airport in order to provide convenient lodging for travelers. The proposed full-service hotel will have 153 rooms, a full-service restaurant, an indoor pool, 7,000 square feet of conference room space, as well as 300 stalls of underground and surface parking.
