For 25 years, the Rocky Mountain Land Use Institute (RMLUI) has been leading a discussion in the West about the challenges presented by growth and the innovative ideas for addressing them.

Western Places/Western Spaces: Examining the Past, Exploring the Future continues this tradition, pausing to look back and examine the lessons learned that can guide our actions and policies as we move forward into the next 25 years.

Highlights of the 2016 conference program include: 

• Keynote presentation by Peter Calthorpe, co-founder of the Congress for New Urbanism and the creator of Transit Oriented Development.
• Sessions on hot button issues including the Sage Brush Rebellion, acid mine drainage, wildfire, and water.
• Over 30 additional panels in 6 tracks exploring a range of topics including transportation, affordable housing, energy, recent legal developments, and more.
• Two walking tours highlighting redevelopment and connectivity.
