Maddy summaryHB 120 exempts from Wyoming property taxes energy production equipment temporarily stored in the state before installation. It directly affects businesses storing specialized energy equipment (like wind turbines or solar panels) for future use in energy production facilities. The law defines "energy production equipment" to include items for natural gas, coal, wind, solar, hydro, or nuclear energy, but excludes standard building materials or construction tools. This exemption applies only during temporary storage prior to installation and takes effect July 1, 2019.
Maddy summaryThis bill requires Wyoming state agencies to use a single, standardized payment processor for collecting fees, taxes, and other payments instead of each agency managing its own system. It directly affects all executive branch agencies (including departments like Transportation and Game and Fish), the judiciary, legislature, and institutions like the University of Wyoming. The Department of Enterprise Technology Services must establish and administer this statewide contract, with limited waivers only if an agency proves it cannot feasibly use the centralized system. This standardizes payment processing methods (like credit cards or checks) for state collections without changing the types of fees or taxes collected.
