Wyoming public safety communications system trust fund.
HB 46 creates a permanent Wyoming Public Safety Communications System Trust Fund to support the state's WyoLink emergency communications network. It establishes a $100 million seed fund from the general budget, which the state treasurer will invest to generate earnings. Ninety percent of these investment earnings will be distributed semiannually to the Wyoming Department of Transportation specifically for WyoLink operations, equipment, infrastructure, and other system needs, following a strict spending priority order. The fund's principal remains protected, with 10% of earnings returned to the fund corpus annually. This bill directly affects the WyoLink system and its management by the Wyoming Department of Transportation.
