Board of parole-Wyoming residency.
HB 94 requires that any person appointed to Wyoming's state board of parole must have lived in Wyoming for at least one year before their appointment and must continue residing in the state throughout their entire six-year term. This rule applies to all members appointed or reappointed on or after July 1, 2023, directly affecting the governor (who appoints members), the state senate (which provides advice and consent), and potential parole board members. The bill amends existing law to add this residency requirement, ensuring board members maintain a connection to Wyoming during their service. It takes effect on July 1, 2023, with no changes to other existing board appointment rules.
