MSA Today

March 2024

It's SPRING!

Spring is here — a time of renewal, growth, and planning for what lies ahead. This issue of MSA Today reminds readers about the importance of addressing electrical utilities in park and recreational projects and how GIS can streamline community planning efforts — from assisting with zoning and land use decisions to synthesizing housing data and encouraging public engagement.

Take a look, consider the possibilities, and — as always — let us know how we can help.

NATIONAL SURVEYORS WEEK - 2024

It's National Surveyors Week! For those of you familiar with MSA's history, our roots reach back to Baraboo, circa 1919, and the surveying and engineering partnership of H.E. French and Helmer C. Amundson in the 1920s. Our surveying practice remains strong today — the backbone of many client projects — and we're proud to have a robust team of licensed professional surveyors and surveying technicians ready to conduct surveys for you, in any location, in any season.
