2026.09.29 Fremont County, WY Commission Meeting

The Fremont County, Wyoming Commission meeting, listed as September 29, 2026 (meeting metadata: September 30 UTC), approved several spending and procurement items. The commission awarded the 2026 county striping project to SNL Industrial for $316,749.46, approved a $66,000 agreement with Carver, Florick and James CPA for compliance services, and approved an annual $2,440.80 DC Group proposal for emergency backup-battery power-supply maintenance. It also approved a $2,500 county credit card for IT Tech Amos Muro and authorized a notice to proceed for Alexander Excavation’s youth-camp wastewater project; commissioners said that project had been approved earlier, but the notice was missing from the prior packet. Other approved payments included $25,636 to Wyoming Behavioral Institute and two indigent-burial payments to David’s Funeral Home. The commission also approved a contract extension with Priority/Frontier Ambulance after discussion of transition plans, service levels, equipment, and funding. The stated annual amounts were $2,321,224 for the first year and $2,421,240 for the second, plus $672,498 for the final three months; the extension includes employee raises of 5% and 4% in the first and second years, respectively. A motion to finalize the extension and authorize review and signing passed.

In budget actions, commissioners approved a resolution that included a $193,000 transfer from cash reserves for EagleView assessor flyover services, a $20,000 NCIC donation for sheriff’s detention training and equipment, and $24,086 for multi-jurisdictional traffic enforcement. They also approved a museum budget amendment covering grant-funded and self-generated purchases, including $1,650 for Riverton Museum digital-collection equipment, $5,000 for Dubois Museum gift-shop expenditures, and $8,969 from the Wind River Cultural Centers Foundation. Separate presentations discussed a proposed Wyoming Department of Transportation gravel lease to support future road projects, a conceptual $30 million recreation facility, and a request to support the Lander aquatic center; none resulted in a county funding or procurement decision during the meeting. The travel policy was postponed for review.
