Tipella Subdivision

Xa’xtsa Douglas First Nation (XDFN) retained the DNA civil engineering team to provide design and construction engineering services for their 13-lot Tipella subdivision, located on Douglas IR8.  Xa’xtsa Douglas First Nation (XDFN) is located near Harrison Lake and adjacent to the Lillooet River.

Unique site constraints required consideration during the design and construction of this subdivision. Site constraints included:

  • existing BC Hydro and fibre optic right-of-ways,
  • culturally significant (archaeological) sites in the community, and
  • Flood Control Levels of the Lillooet River

The subdivision layout maximizes the number of lots in a highly constrained site, and lot pads and roads have been constructed above flood construction levels to protect community members during future flooding events.

It’s in our DNA… Engagement. Respect. Expertise.
