The Wyoming Business Council Board of Directors held their regular quarterly meeting in Laramie Wednesday. During the meeting, the board reviewed three Business Ready Community (BRC) grant and loan projects for funding and approved the WBC to enter into a contract with the City of Sundance for the rehabilitation of the Old Stoney project. The board also reviewed and approved several Challenge and Succession loans.

The Business Council Board recommended approval of the Sheridan Economic and Educational Development Authority’s request for a $4.4 million Community Readiness grant to develop phase two of the Sheridan High-Tech Park. The project would include the purchase of 35 acres of property in north Sheridan and the installation of water, sewer, and roadway infrastructure. The State Loan and Investment Board will consider SEEDA’s grant request at their meeting on Thursday, October 4.
