Experience
Gary Boutwell is responsible for
performing data collection, general planning research, and planning
analyses for projects carried out by Pedersen Planning Consultants (PPC).
He prepares land use databases and applies statistical models to
various types of planning analyses. Boutwell also develops
geographical information systems (GIS) that are applied to most
projects completed by the firm. He also manages the firm’s local
area network and security systems.
He developed a geographical
information system (GIS) for the Town of Riverside, Wyoming.
Boutwell built the Riverside GIS using available spatial information
and aerial photography, his performance of a related land use
inventory, and location of some municipal utility features using
GPS.
Boutwell expanded an existing
geographical system for Walden, Colorado to incorporate various
other types of spatial information, e.g., land use, soils, and
utilities data that supported the firm’s completion of a municipal
master plan. He completed an inventory of all land uses within the
community and incorporated this information into the expanded GIS.
Boutwell also compiled various types of demographic and economic
information that was used by the firm to examine various factors
influencing future community growth.
Boutwell carried out an onsite
inventory of land uses, developed geographical information systems,
as well as participated in the evaluation of demographic, economic
and land use trends, for the Town of Alpine, Town of Afton, Town of
Thayne, and the Town of Star Valley Ranch. These analyses and
geographical information systems were completed in conjunction with
the firm’s preparation of municipal master plans for each of these
Star Valley communities.
Boutwell completed an inventory of
almost 9,000 housing units in the City of Rock Springs, Wyoming.
Using ArcGIS software, he input this data into attribute tables
associated with the Rock Springs GIS to facilitate the completion of
various project tasks for the City of Rock Springs Housing Master
Plan. Boutwell completed spatial analyses of available community
assets and various physical constraints influencing future
opportunities for future residential expansion. He also developed a
statistical model that was applied to the project to develop
population and housing demand forecasts.
Boutwell compiled selected
demographic and economic data for all 23 counties in Wyoming. This
compilation supported the evaluation of demographic and economic
analyses made for the Wyoming Workforce Child Care Needs Assessment.
He also participated in a feasibility
analysis made by PPC for a proposed 24-hour child care facility in
Douglas, Wyoming. For this project, Boutwell examined the start-up
and operational costs associated with infant, toddler, preschool and
after school care. He also compiled results from a survey of
Douglas, WY and Converse County residents. |
