City Council

Laramie Mayor Andrea Summerville said the state legislature passed a number of bills that substantially changed aspects of Wyoming’s liquor laws, which will require Laramie to update their ordinances.

Interim City Manager Liz Becher said she would not request an investigation without a majority council vote.

The proposal seeks changes to the recommended prohibited activities table in the protection plan that has to deal with hazardous toxic substances related to vehicle repair.

Summerville said she first brought up the idea of a task force during the Dec. 7 listening session hosted by UW, as an aspect of her larger plan for UW community engagement.

The ordinance will be up for third and final reading at the Council's regular meeting Tuesday, July 19.

“They’ve been bringing not only the local manager but also vice presidents, and listening to us and also responding very quickly to customers’ concerns,” says Shumway. “Not that they solved all of them – because they didn’t.”

“I don’t think it has anything to do with the economic development of the municipality,” says Henry.

“If we can get an agreement for annual review, I think we’re willing to go forward at least to reconsider a franchise agreement with them,” says Shumway.
