Over the next two years he grew from the “ground up”, experiencing each aspect of the surveying and engineering process to become a design engineer until his mentor passed away. With the limited opportunities in Grand County, he moved to the Front Range. While in Denver he gathered an expertise in drainage calculations, design and reporting, erosion control and bid procurement. He also gained valuable experience while being the field engineer of a 4000-Acre master planned community. After a couple more years of experience and obtaining his Professional Engineer’s licensure, he broke away to start Hayne Land Development Services in 2000.

In the ensuing years Mr. Hayne continued to gain experience in the field of Civil Engineering, especially as it relates to mountain development and the entitlement process in Grand County. After two years of seeing the needs here in Grand County, Hayne Land Development blossomed into Gagnon and Hayne Consulting Engineers, and began offering Land Surveying services.
