Joint work sessions between the city council and county commissioners have become a recurring forum for aligning governance across Laramie and Albany County's unincorporated areas. At a prior joint session, both bodies agreed to appoint members to working groups, following shared discussions of individual priorities and ways the two elected bodies could best collaborate. Those groups addressed topics including the Casper Aquifer Protection Plan and environmental advisory issues, as well as high-priority growth areas and infrastructure.

The two bodies also share joint appointment authority over bodies like the Environmental Advisory Committee, which under local municipal code consists of seven members who must be qualified electors of Albany County, with at least two residing within Laramie's city limits and at least two in unincorporated Albany County.

City Hall offices are open Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. The general city line is 307-721-5200. For questions specific to tonight's meeting, the City Clerk's Office handles inquiries at (307) 721-5220.
