EMS districts.
This bill (SF 43) creates a new process for counties in Wyoming to establish emergency medical services (EMS) districts. Instead of requiring a public petition, county commissioners can now form or modify EMS districts through a resolution, after reviewing proposed boundaries with the county assessor and Department of Revenue. The bill specifies that county commissioners must appoint 3-9 local residents to lead these districts (serving 3-year staggered terms), and sets tax limits: districts formed via resolution can levy up to 4 mills (with voter approval), while others are capped at 2 mills. It directly affects counties and residents within EMS districts by changing how these services are organized and funded.
