City Manager V.H. McDonald

The state has been considering consolidating numerous departments -- some in deteriorating buildings -- around Casper in a centralized campus for efficiency and better service to the public.

Residents near 21st and Wyoming Boulevard want the snow storage to stop, a sign and a minimum fence to indicate the site is park land, and more restricted access so people don't dump their trash there.

Casper City Manager V.H. McDonald says capital-designated funds will not be used for daily operations, nor are general funds used for capital projects.

To make ends meet, the City of Casper will tap about $1.6 million of its $26 million in reserves, coupled with a variety of spending cuts.

Casper City Manager V.H. McDonald named two city employees as assistant city managers, according to a news release Wednesday.

Casper City Council swore in its newest member and approved a long-term growth agreement with the Town of Bar Nunn during its meeting Tuesday.
