Sustainable Community Development Company was formed in 2006 by Dave Sheridan, a Civil Engineer, to develop small residential and commercial projects with sustainable attributes. The company's mission is formed by two trends that require fundamental changes in the way we live, and the way we use the earth's resources: climate change and petroleum depletion.
The company will focus on the small towns in Pennsylvania, which constitute an important asset for people who want to organize their lives to move through the severe disruptions that society will experience as oil depletion and global warming advance.
SuCoDev develops green buildings - homes and commercial spaces that are highly energy and resource efficient, and that provide healthy indoor environments.  Its projects are constructed in the developed core of our small towns, to avoid consuming open land, and to take advantage of the extensive infrastructure already in place, such as roads, sewers, water, and other utilities.  SuCoDev projects also offer the advantages of walkable communities, with community resources - schools, stores, and recreational assets - nearby and accessible without driving.

• Sustainable Community Development Company serves its clients in several ways:
  The company develops its own projects, offering homes and commercial spaces that are highly energy and resource efficient, and that offer healthy indoor environments.
• The company will also develop a high performance home or commercial space for an individual customer.  This service could be provided on the customer's building site, or SuCoDev could locate a site for the customer.
• The company could serve another developer by planning and constructing green buildings on an approved site.
