Town and County to hold community open house June 1 Logo Brand Buckrail - Jackson Hole, news

JACKSON HOLE, WYO – Here is your opportunity to get engaged in your community.

The Town of Jackson and Teton County will host an open house and community discussion on local wildlife, workforce housing and other topics at the Center for the Arts on June 1.

Topics will run the gamut, from workforce housing, to parking, to zoning, and natural resource regulations.

The event is part of the Town and County Planning Department’s new initiative for inviting community discussion and input on updates to regulations that will have widespread implications for the community.

The open house portion of the event will take place from 12:00pm to 8:00pm, and the community discussion will be held from 5:30pm to 8:00pm.

The event is intended to collect public feedback on how the Town and County should approach the following five questions:

  • What can be done to protect wildlife habitat and improve water quality?
  • Where should workforce housing be built?
  • Where is parking an issue and how can parking be improved?
  • What role should businesses and developers play in providing workforce housing?
  • Who should qualify for deed-restricted housing and what rules should apply to them?
