Sheridan County voters will decide in August whether or not to form a Senior Citizen Service District. Sheridan Media’s Ron Richter has more.
During a recent update to the Sheridan City Council and Mayor Rich Bridger, The Hub on Smith Executive Director Dustin Stephens said the demand for senior services in Sheridan County continues to grow and the cost to efficiently provide those services continues to rise as well.
Stephens said that to help respond to the need for senior services, Wyoming law provides a process for voters to create a Senior Citizen Service District. Sheridan County voters will decide in August during the Primary Election whether or not to create a Senior Citizen Service District.
Stephens said if the ballot measure is approved in August, five board members would be elected during November’s General Election, and the board would be tasked with establishing policy and overseeing distribution of the District’s funds. The Senior Citizen Service District would come before voters every four years if approved this year. The Primary Election in Wyoming this year is Tuesday, August 18. The General Election is Tuesday, November 3.
