City of Casper | October 27th, 2026 | City Council Work Session

The City of Casper City Council held a work session on October 27, 2026 (the metadata lists October 28 UTC). The Casper Area MPO presented the preferred option from its transit route analysis: direct routes supplemented by microtransit. Public comment was scheduled to close that evening, with a final report expected to go to MPO committees for adoption in December; transit partners would return to Council later to seek approval for implementation. Consultant Michael Kamner of Farrand Pierce was present, but technical problems disrupted the presentation. No transit contract award, spending decision, or implementation approval was recorded.

The session also began an informational discussion of street lighting, including lighting standards, pedestrian visibility, and ownership of local lights—about two-thirds are owned by Rocky Mountain Power, with the remainder largely owned by the city or other parties. The presentation was interrupted by a technology reboot, and no lighting-related procurement or budget action was identified. The transcript also briefly mentions a possible amendment to Title 17 and ongoing recreation-center work, including a security-fence upgrade associated with a second sheet of ice, but records no related vote or purchasing decision.
