County approves SHSP grants for K9 training, security equipment and ID printer
Summary
Sheridan County accepted several 100% SHSP-funded grants including $4,368 for K9 training and ongoing supplies for K9 Scout and $8,685 for a new ID card printer used for election security and county identifications; the board authorized the chair to sign the agreements.
Sheridan County commissioners approved three grant agreements with the Wyoming Office of Homeland Security funded through the 2025 State Homeland Security Program (SHSP).
Emergency management staff described a $4,368 award to support monthly K9 training and supplies required to maintain certification for the county's K9, Scout. "This will provide monthly training for scout is required as part of her uh ongoing certification and will also provide for ongoing uh training supplies," the presenter said. Separate SHSP-funded projects approved the purchase and installation of security equipment and a replacement ID card printer, the latter intended for election security and county identification needs. The printer award was noted at $8,685 and county staff said the grants are 100% funded with no local match.
Why it matters: The grants cover recurring training requirements for a county K9 program, upgrades to physical security equipment funded at no local match, and replacement of essential ID-printer infrastructure used for election security, agencies, and partner organizations. The chair was authorized to sign the agreements and staff indicated media releases and further coordination would follow.
