Community colleges-bachelor of applied science programs.

Maddy summaryWyoming's SF 111 authorizes community colleges to offer applied bachelor's degree programs (called "baccalaureate of applied science" degrees) for the first time. It requires the Community College Commission to approve all new such programs before they can receive state funding. The bill also updates the Hathaway scholarship program to cover these new degrees, allowing students to use scholarships for up to eight semesters to complete them while maintaining a 2.25 GPA. This directly affects community college students pursuing applied bachelor's degrees and the colleges offering them.

County zoning authority-private schools.

Maddy summaryThis bill exempts qualifying private schools from county zoning regulations in Wyoming. It specifically applies to private schools located on 35 or more contiguous acres with a capacity for at least 50 students, as defined in state law. County zoning rules can no longer restrict the location, use, or occupancy of such schools. The policy change took effect July 1, 2019, directly affecting only private schools meeting these two size and capacity requirements.

Professional services procurement.

Maddy summaryThis Wyoming bill changes how state agencies select firms for professional services like architecture, engineering, and land surveying. It defines a "resident firm" as one with an in-state office staffed by local employees and requiring at least 50% of the project work to be performed by staff or contractors based in Wyoming. Agencies must now consider whether a firm meets this residency standard when evaluating bids and selecting contractors. The rule applies to all new contracts issued on or after July 1, 2019.

Management council membership-2.

Maddy summarySF 161 amends Wyoming's legislative management council membership rules. It specifies that two senators and two representatives are selected at large by each chamber's party caucuses, with strict limits on party representation (no more than one from the same party as the chamber's presiding officer). The bill also establishes a two-year rotation of the council chairmanship between the House and Senate and clarifies that the council directs the legislature's day-to-day operations. This procedural bill affects only the internal organization of the Wyoming Legislature, not public policy.

Co-sponsor HB 270

died · Wyoming House · Co-sponsor

Transportation commission contract immunity repeal.

Maddy summaryHB 270 would remove a legal shield that currently prevents lawsuits against Wyoming's Transportation Commission for issues arising from its contracts. If passed, the bill would amend state law to eliminate the Commission's ability to claim immunity under the Wyoming Governmental Claims Act when defending contract-related lawsuits. This change would directly affect the Transportation Commission and individuals or entities seeking legal recourse over contractual disputes with the Commission. The bill, introduced in 2019 but never enacted, was intended to take effect July 1, 2019.
