Chairman North announced the need to fill two vacancies and called for nominations; trustees approved John as treasurer and Stacy as secretary by voice vote. \"All in favor of John being the treasurer, say aye,\" Chairman North said; the meeting record shows voice votes with no roll-call tallies recorded and the chair declared the elections carried.

Peter Nicholaysen asked the board to consider whether it was premature to permanently fill officer roles while additional trustees are not yet installed, noting the board is transitioning from county commissioners to a citizen board and that future trustees might prefer different officer assignments. \"...it it may be premature, to have just these 2 offices, selected,\" Nicholaysen said. Chairman North responded that statute requires annual election in January and that the county attorney advised the board to fill the positions now.

In trustees' comments, Chairman North reported on an Office of State Lands hearing regarding sections near the end of Coach Road and said some board members recommended pursuing a recreational lease for outdoor recreation on selected sections. He said trustees discussed whether press-fund money for outdoor recreation could help supplement a special lease agreement. \"That was designed for outdoor recreation,\" Chairman North said of the press fund, and he indicated trustees are still working through criteria and involvement for any potential lease.

Trustees approved minutes from the previous meeting by voice vote and welcomed new members. No formal ordinance or lease action was taken; the state lands item was discussed as an idea for further exploration and would require additional criteria and possible fund considerations.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Trustees of NC Parks & Recreation System - June 12 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Trustees selected John as treasurer and Stacy as secretary by voice vote; members discussed timing of officer elections during a transition from commissioners to a citizen board and heard about a possible recreational lease on state trust lands near Coach Road.","taxTitle","Natrona, Wyoming","taxId",3790,"location","Wyoming","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_46":80,"_48":81,"_50":82,"_52":83,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":84,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":85,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":55,"_73":55},6199637,"Parks staff to seek legal action over 17 unpaid lot rents; Alcova permits scheduled for 2026 review",310,1323000,1633000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3824680-5efa7e31465489e5e864bd4b32b2fcd5&start=1323&end=1633","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3824680-5efa7e31465489e5e864bd4b32b2fcd5/thumbnail_1323000.jpg","/articles/6199637/Wyoming/Parks-staff-to-seek-legal-action-over-17-unpaid-lot-rents-Alcova-permits-scheduled-for-2026-review","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199637-075aaa5d5f64c431021ee7e16f43af64/orig.mp4?Expires=1775365377&Signature=QGlTNcGmh3pAJSChKlMz~mMVLuQV2pJr9fOTD0FYTgEg0248gIfiJAQSOdlcvVGlMv8qTb3lD8~SLv5qqLby6FMB~t~Lr86xQRGOVBYEGvF65WdZJ-eT2p4wqUz8Drq9MGQlHMevKcnf5fsrB91CTemnah1r~p6CnR8AY9BSREdqoUg4mQASBrpquCqmRWYFX6qmy2wFkFfPNblU1xV-hQ9SpIZXeHZZJWcbv8XQJizTzqr8-2FmM76x2k3IuZQ7NtJLeX~BQ2E3Hf4GvRQ8NyBCYUR39NxbBq0nbXBWoXVEKK6dvHWU4ubqYpmZ1pk9OrNO3JYbBDe6jDaOOQpF3Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Parks staff told trustees the department has 17 outstanding lot-rent accounts that were due May 19 and that it plans to submit a request to county legal to pursue penalties or breach-of-contract remedies if those accounts are not resolved.

\"By July 10, we would be contacting legal,\" Michael, Parks staff, said. He described recent outreach consisting of calls and messages and said Parks is drafting the memo to legal now. \"We told them that by July 10, we would be contacting legal. So we're drafting that memo at this time.\"

Michael said the department added a penalty clause to permits in 2021 and that enforcement steps generally require certified letters and a 30-day cure period before further action. He described the process in general terms: \"We added a penalty clause, and I think the penalty ... requires certified mail and ... you need to send a certified letter stating that you're in breach of the permit. This is your potential penalty if you don't fix it within 30 days. Then ... go to the next step.\"

Staff reported one carryover account from last year that remained unresolved and noted the department will withhold permit transfers until outstanding rents are paid. Michael said the penalty clause is intended to provide incentives but acknowledged that increasing financial penalties can make it harder for permittees to pay.

On a related item, Michael told trustees the Alcova lot permits expire May 19, 2026, and that the department will begin an initial review of permit terms. He raised a potential issue with a state permit clause that would limit allowable trailers to 25 years old and said that requirement could be problematic for the local trailer park; he asked trustees to weigh whether to propose an adjustment to permit terms during the upcoming review.

Next steps: Parks will finalize the memo to legal and, if necessary, proceed with certified-notice steps; Parks will begin a permit review for Alcova with trustee involvement and return with recommended revisions.","Parks reported 17 unpaid lot rents due May 19 and said it will notify legal by July 10; staff also flagged that Alcova lot permits expire May 19, 2026, and noted a possible conflict between state trailer-age limits and the county trailer park.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":55,"_73":55},6199642,"Parks staff plan grand opening, boardwalk review and signage at Casper Mountain Trail Center while short-staffed",187,647000,834000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3824680-5efa7e31465489e5e864bd4b32b2fcd5&start=647&end=834","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3824680-5efa7e31465489e5e864bd4b32b2fcd5/thumbnail_647000.jpg","/articles/6199642/Wyoming/Parks-staff-plan-grand-opening-boardwalk-review-and-signage-at-Casper-Mountain-Trail-Center-while-short-staffed","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199642-b0254988c078516b857e1600b149584a/orig.mp4?Expires=1775365377&Signature=mr7NTaomtc4hjGaUVFeVUR3e1Xgf1vwsrBQRAmxCIQU2X-mmQIDqvd8U1yED4OB~GconNyKfBDhOFo~aPLvosUTpgkfia5mH1tvtuecbrCYNkzGoB~2N0wbx8TWDSG~3SSors5qOv-3ny3zTlBrjHsOXzQAvrWz4oa0dArKitI-PisJ6TnWYfPjkH6efNNAgffrkXOXtRPpBOm3xndPcCXMzM~dojYVyn1YtX~3fy9ks4FJx-D-tjq294MzFbTBFV0cEHwR9Q7FXMOudPoaiQegNmBuGYpEe5AgyfBbm3B6m9ILtXldWsucqeGLxzVo2lNzH7EN02hOkrcwewKl-MQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Parks staff told trustees that wayfinding signs have been printed and geological interpretive signs are ready for pickup, and that they have received an engineered design for the Trail Center boardwalk now slated for code review.

\"I received a actual engineer design for the boardwalk. I briefly reviewed that. I believe that's going into the building department, to be reviewed for code and whatnot,\" Michael, Parks staff, said; he added he expects the boardwalk project to start \"probably mid July.\"

Staff also described site improvements at Rotary Park and ongoing work on grading and gravel at House At Faker funded through a reimbursement grant. Parks reported two successful rentals at the Trail Center and said those events highlighted logistical issues in reservation timing, setup access and cleanup.

The department remains short-staffed on Casper Mountain: Michael told trustees he is still recruiting a full-time maintenance operator (equipment/grooming/dirt work) and a lodge caretaker who would also assist with campground caretaking. \"I am still in search for staff. I have 2 positions I need to fill up there,\" Michael said.

Trustees and staff discussed a grand opening for the Trail Center. The board discussed dates and scheduling conflicts with community events including CNFR, Frontier Days and Sturgis; trustees agreed to target Aug. 16 for the grand opening and asked Parks to block reservations and confirm availability. Chairman North instructed staff to check the reservation calendar and block a date if available.

On event funding and logistics, Parks said the county cannot purchase food or drinks for the event; staff suggested in-kind raffle items and invited community groups and food trucks to participate. Staff said they will revise the Trail Center rental policy after recent events to clarify setup and cleanup windows.

Next steps: Parks will submit the boardwalk design to the building department for review, continue recruitment for two Casper Mountain positions, block the selected grand-opening date if no conflicts exist, and return to trustees with proposed rental-policy edits.","Parks staff reported progress on wayfinding and geological signs, received an engineered boardwalk design for code review and proposed a grand opening date; staffing vacancies remain for Casper Mountain maintenance and lodge caretaker roles and staff will revise rental policies after recent events.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_46":104,"_48":105,"_50":106,"_52":107,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":108,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":109,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":71,"_72":55,"_73":55},6199647,"Revelry Rotary offers benches to Casper Mountain Trail Center; trustees ask staff to coordinate placement",319,336000,655000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3824680-5efa7e31465489e5e864bd4b32b2fcd5&start=336&end=655","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3824680-5efa7e31465489e5e864bd4b32b2fcd5/thumbnail_336000.jpg","/articles/6199647/Wyoming/Revelry-Rotary-offers-benches-to-Casper-Mountain-Trail-Center-trustees-ask-staff-to-coordinate-placement","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199647-e95dabd42fe2c71b7bd157f5f4161ba4/orig.mp4?Expires=1775365377&Signature=NnsYS9CuGkUXInXar42ww3h~tJKhowGB-8fyfYWeyO9sMhdIT-AI~s6tiXbfW0AxwhVbc7IGoZt-atTQA~MwyvUYj-JHiJOypSU-STGu-qVerdUKnY73b1LI73zqAp98OFJ094Mj0TK8x2fGbBg6yAm7Uk5Xf67kbkj47OdOLh0QtkkV74X~6YMW-GyLc-mGX-mL6NnBaokan9PBq2WWMxG4fLlZjgiAs4eRdVXd1JWIh0stLMsbjmoQNBvSQeVIqiAcF-GTTMzyZeJ06jYu8~DsZc-LL~k7Ip9LerCnTngaWBowGZ2e-Zlj4K7TfNLQoS6Sax6rafUyrCnCDqASeg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","David Huff, representing the Revelry Club, asked the Parks trustees to accept a donated bench for the Casper Mountain Trail Center during the trustees' meeting.

The bench would be provided at no cost to the county; the donor asked that Parks pick the bench up at the City Service Center and bolt it in place at the Trail Center. \"They would be of no cost to you. We're simply we would simply provide it to you, but we we don't deliver,\" Huff said.

The Revelry Club has installed benches in city parks and along trails since 2013 and told the trustees it now has about 30 benches installed around Casper with several more staged and ready for placement.

Michael, Parks staff, said the department has not yet determined the best location at the Trail Center and must take grooming and snow piling into account because the bench would be permanent. \"Parks has yet to determine the best location at the trail center for it to I had to take into account grooming, piling of snow and whatnot since it'll be a permanent structure,\" Michael said.

Trustees expressed support for the donation and asked staff to coordinate the logistics. Chairman North said the trustees would follow up with Michael on placement. The meeting record shows no formal motion or roll-call vote accepting the bench; trustees instead directed staff to work with the donor and Parks crews to install the bench.

Next steps: Parks staff will identify a specific installation site at the Trail Center, confirm whether Parks crews can pick up and bolt the bench in place, and report back to the trustees.","David Huff of the Revelry Club offered to donate a 5-foot metal bench to the Casper Mountain Trail Center at no cost to the county; Parks staff said they will evaluate placement and grooming impacts and trustees instructed staff to follow up.","actionData","errors"]
