Relevant Experience
David R. Jensen is a nationally recognized land planner with more than three decades of experience on a wide range of projects throughout the United States, including Hawaii and Puerto Rico, and internationally in the Philippines. Projects vary in size, scope and location from the master planning of large-scale residential and premier golf course resort communities and mixed use planned communities, to the overall planning of small parcels.

His leadership in land use decisions, as well as the community design of a project, balances overall project design, marketability, and profitability. Dave's sales- and market-based land planning approach, which he terms Windows and FocalsTM, developed for golf and lake communities is also implemented with other real estate ventures. Over the years, his work for community developers and builders has resulted in many award winning master planned communities that serve as examples of innovation and conservation. These communities are sensitively designed to be great places for people to live, with parks and open space for children, hiking and biking trail systems, and natural areas for habitat viewing.

Dave is a speaker for the development and building community on green development techniques, smart growth, sustainable development, golf course development, "Winning at the Zoning Table", and other topics. He recently spoke to Colorado State Senators of the Smart Growth Subcommittee on growth issues pertaining to Colorado. He is the author of books published by the National Association of Home Builders and Urban Land Institute. In addition, his articles have been featured in various trade publications throughout the United States.
