Community college capital construction.
HB 28 increases the minimum cost threshold requiring Wyoming Community College Commission approval for capital construction projects from $100,000 to $250,000. It affects community colleges and the Commission by changing which projects need formal review before state funds can be used. The bill specifically revises approval requirements for new construction, renovations, and real property acquisitions exceeding $250,000 in market value. This procedural change, effective July 1, 2023, streamlines the approval process for smaller projects without altering funding levels or program requirements.
