BKF is providing civil engineering and planning services for Sonoma Mountain Village (SOMO), a transformative redevelopment of the former 175‑acre Lucent Technologies light‑industrial campus into a vibrant, mixed‑use sustainable community. As one of the nation’s first projects to achieve LEED‑ND Platinum certification, SOMO is envisioned as a model for environmentally responsible urban development, recognized with the Governor’s Environmental and Economic Leadership Award.
BKF’s work supports comprehensive land‑use planning efforts, the creation of a 16‑mile multimodal street network, and the implementation of new urban design principles that prioritize walkability, transit access, and ecological stewardship. The result is a forward‑thinking community that integrates housing, employment, services, and open space in a way that advances long‑term sustainability and innovation in the North Bay.
