Community Enhancement and Facility Needs Assessment
The Legislature tasked the Wyoming Business Council with surveying cities and counties for enhancement opportunities to possibly include in CFP and future legislation. The purpose of the survey was to understand enhancement needs. Local governments, 35 in total, completed the Wyoming Community Enhancement and Facility Needs Assessment in 2005. Based on those results, the Business Council prepared a legislative report for the Joint Appropriations and Joint Minerals, Business and Economic Development Interim Committees.
