September 8, 2026, Cheyenne Planning Commission Meeting - Part 1

The September 8, 2026, City of Cheyenne Planning Commission meeting considered assigned zoning for approximately 652.67 acres in the Hitching Post District, proposed as the future site of a PRCA Cowboy Hall of Fame and headquarters. Staff recommended Agricultural zoning for the larger northern parcel and retaining Light Industrial zoning for the southern parcel. A commissioner moved to recommend approval of that assignment; the transcript records a divided and partly garbled roll call, so the outcome cannot be confirmed. The commission then introduced a future land use map amendment and zoning map amendment for the district, but the transcript ends before their discussion or any decisions are captured.

A nearby resident raised concerns about potential groundwater contamination affecting households that rely on wells. Staff described required connections to city water and sewer for the annexed area, construction stormwater controls, and state and local review or enforcement processes. No contracts, purchases, budget allocations, or other procurement activity were identified in the transcript.
