From one debate to another: Town, county set to consider possible fairgrounds move in January


A future home for the Teton County Fairgrounds could be up for debate as soon as January.
Town and county elected and appointed officials are ready to discuss whether there’s a better location for the fairgrounds, whether the space could be better used for housing, and how to preserve Jackson Hole’s “Western heritage.”
But with the conversation coming on the heels of planning for northern South Park, at least one official is worried that people won’t be ready for another major undertaking.
Still there could be some overlap between the wishes of housing-focused electeds and fair officials when it comes to the future of the fairgrounds. ....

Legislature weighs state trust lands, abortion rights, Medicaid expansion and more


The Wyoming Legislature has been abuzz this week with a number of high-profile bills — and topics — filtering through the House and Senate. Some would directly impact Teton County, and others have animated conversation around Medicaid expansion, abortion rights, taxes, power generation and voting.
We’ve rounded up a few of the bills here.
House Bill 164, co-sponsored by Teton County Rep. Andy Schwartz and Sen. Mike Gierau, passed the committee on Monday in a 5-2 vote.
The legislation authorizes Wyoming to sell a square-mile Grand Teton National Park inholding to the National Park Service, though it’s saddled with a potential poison pill of an amendment that requires any sale must fetch $500,000 an acre. ....
