Central Wyoming College announced plans to construct a new CWC/Jackson Center. With support from Teton County voters, CWC-Jackson received $3.82 million in SPET funds in 2017 for the acquisition of land, planning, design, engineering and construction of a new facility.
Additionally, the Wyoming Community College Commission which coordinates the state’s community college network, voted to support $7.57 million for the project, listing this it as their number one capital construction priority for the 2020 Wyoming State Legislature Budget Session.
In addition, CWC announced a new location where the college plans to build that center. A new opportunity has arisen for CWC to purchase two acres of land located south of High School Road. This site is larger than the original and provides more space to build a center capable of meeting community needs with adequate parking, is close to public transportation, and will enable opportunities for further collaboration with the school district.
CWC plans to sell the property previously purchased and use those funds to buy the new site, therefore keeping SPET dollars in use for the same purpose as designated by taxpayers.
