The bill amends Wyoming law regarding the financial interactions of county commissioners and elected county officials with associations and organizations aimed at promoting good governance. It explicitly prohibits the use of county funds for membership fees and expenses related to association activities, such as room, board, or travel costs. Additionally, it mandates that all documents and materials created by counties in relation to their activities with these associations, including agendas, correspondence, and financial statements, be classified as public records.
Furthermore, the bill requires county commissioners and elected officials to document their time and activities related to association business while using county resources. They must submit a monthly report detailing this work to their respective boards of county commissioners. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2025.
