HB 74 Wyoming House · 2023 Regular Session

Wyoming outdoor recreation and tourism trust fund.

HB 74 creates a Wyoming Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund to support public outdoor access and infrastructure. It establishes two accounts: a principal "trust account" (for donations and grants) and an "income account" (for earnings), with funds distributed as follows: 80% annually for grants to local, state, or tribal governments to improve trails, parks, and public access facilities, and 20% for administrative costs. The Wyoming Parks and Cultural Resources Commission manages the fund, must report yearly on grants and spending to the governor and legislature, and requires matching funds for some projects. This bill directly affects communities receiving infrastructure grants and state agencies managing outdoor recreation resources.
