Bill > HB0056

This bill requires cities and towns in Wyoming to send mail notices to landowners when proposed zoning changes are being considered, specifically mandating that notice be sent to all landowners within the affected zoning district and to all landowners within 1,000 feet of the area proposed for zoning changes. The bill broadly defines "zoning change" to include a wide range of zoning-related modifications such as creating new zoning requirements, granting conditional use approvals, amending master plans, making zoning assignments, updating zoning maps, and approving zoning variances. The new notification requirement will apply to zoning change applications filed on or after July 1, 2025, giving local governments time to prepare for the new notice requirements. By requiring direct mail notification, the bill aims to increase transparency and ensure that property owners are informed about potential zoning changes that could impact their property or neighborhood, allowing them an opportunity to provide input or understand upcoming local land use modifications.
