JACKSON, Wyo. — Teton County has launched a new site with the hopes of driving public engagement for current and ongoing projects, according to a press release issued this morning.
“The website powers a holistic set of solutions to help unify and supercharge the public input process,” said the county in the press release.
The new site, engagetetoncountywy.com aims to increase public engagement through surveys, public comment and public meetings and allows users to view projects on one landing page, rather than searching each department’s website or consultant page for project information. Each project page explains its history, project phases, next steps, meeting notices, and ways to engage with County staff and members of the project team.
In addition to project information, one of the main features will be online surveys and polling. The platform will also allow streaming of live meetings where citizens can participate from home. The meeting platform supports virtual and/or in-person options including translation.
Projects currently listed on the site include the Teton County water quality master plan, the rehabilitation project on Spring Gulch Road, the Cattleman’s Bridge mitigation project, the Tribal Trails connector project and the multi-faceted Teton Mobility Corridor Improvements project.
“Teton County is very excited to launch the new public engagement website. It will allow more effective ways for the citizens of Teton County to actively participate in projects and exponentially increase equitable engagement,” said Teton County General Services Director Sarah Mann.
