| dc.description.abstract | The residents of Steamboat Springs, Colorado are continually faced with new propositions for accommodating population growth, but do not possess the proper tools for comparing the potential impacts of different options. In this thesis, I construct four alternative futures for Steamboat Springs, based on realistic potential growth trajectories. Using a visual survey technique and geospatial impact modeling, I then test the impacts of each scenario on five concerns that the community in Steamboat Springs identified as being most important. | en_US |
