Stakeholders,
The Downtown Development Authority is receiving applications for positions on our Board of Directors. The term is from 7/1/16 through 6/30/2020. Although we welcome applications from all, the Board currently lacks the industry expertise of a CPA and Lawyer. If you or someone you may know is interested, please contact us for an application. Along with your application, please submit a cover letter and resume. Applications must be received by May 12, 2016.
Please contact Kevin Hawley for more information by emailing ceo@downtowncasper.com or by calling 307-235-6710.

Downtown Casper could see a new State Office building
Bill Could Mean Construction in Casper
A bill outlining state-funded capitol construction projects was debated in the house and Casper is on the list.
Within the next 3 years, Casper could see a new building replace the one The Department of Workfoce Services
uses now.
The project would be a $44-million project.
While the amendments were debated, only one out of the 8 proposed passed.
“The one amendment that passed was, we have guaranteed the funding of some projects out of some existing funds so where that guarantee was, that was a big point of discussion,” Rep. Stubson said. “But really it was picking out different projects on the list and votes about whether we continue those projects or not.”
As for the Casper projects, Stubson says this will be saving money in the long run because there will be no more lease payments.
