BOCC Staff Meeting - September 28th, 2026

The Sheridan County Board of County Commissioners’ staff meeting was held September 28, 2026. Commissioners approved the warrants as presented, with one commissioner voting no because of concerns about a reproductive-health-related item on the MasterCard warrant. Staff noted a purchase of sandbags through sandbaggy.com at 13 cents each; a $25,356 Kilpatrick Creations wrap/print item was also discussed in connection with the warrants. The county treasurer’s office is seeking a quote to replace aging lighting, and staff reported that work on East Ridge Road had resumed, with completion expected by October 30.

The board considered the court security improvement grant from the Wyoming Supreme Court. The award would fund building security upgrades, with the county contributing 10% ($23,684); a motion was made to approve the agreement and authorize the chair to sign, but the transcript does not capture the vote outcome. The board also considered a support letter for the Dawn Kings Western Museum’s Wyoming Cultural Trust Fund grant application. Other updates covered post-Elk Fire Forest Service work, including road resurfacing, fuel projects, timber sales, and invasive-species monitoring; no county contract award for that work was identified.
