Town officers-salary waiver.
This bill allows elected and appointed town officers in Wyoming (such as mayors and council members) to voluntarily waive their salary or compensation at any point during their term. It amends existing law to explicitly state that officers entitled to pay may choose not to receive it, without affecting other officials' existing rights. The change is procedural and takes effect immediately upon enactment, providing a clear option for officers who wish to serve without pay.
