Page 4 of 7

WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Converse County, Wyoming (the
Board), is the duly constituted governing body of Converse County, Wyoming, and is vested with
the authority to adopt, amend, and rescind resolutions governing the affairs of Converse County,
pursuant to the Constitution and laws of the State of Wyoming; and
WHEREAS, on April 21, 2026, the Board duly adopted Converse County Resolution No.
05-26, entitled “A Resolution Establishing a Process and Criteria for Designation of Industrial
Parks for Purposes of an Industrial Siting Exemption Request Within Converse County,
Wyoming”, (the Original Resolution); and
WHEREAS, since adoption of the Original Resolution, subsequent review has revealed that
the Original Resolution is no longer in the best interest of Converse County, and the Board has
determined that the policy adopted by the Original Resolution should be discontinued; and
WHEREAS, the Board has reviewed the Original Resolution, considered the factual and
legal circumstances now existing, and believes that industrial zones may be better designated and
reviewed under the authority of appropriate county regulations promulgated in accordance with
W.S. §18-5-301 through W.S. §18-5-319, as these statutes provide for extensive public notice and
public input both from the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of County
Commissioners; and
WHEREAS, the Board desires, by adoption of this Resolution, to clearly and formally
rescind the Original Resolution, to avoid uncertainty as to the continuing validity of the Original
Resolution, and to ensure the public record accurately reflects the current policy and directives of
the Board.
WHEREAS, the Board further desires that this Resolution be maintained in the official

ATTEST:
/s/ Richard C. Grant, Jr., Vice Chairman
/s/ Karen Rimmer, Converse County Clerk
Mr. Short seconded. It was stated for the record that the original intent [of Resolution 05-26] was
to increase public participation; however, a conversation held Cheyenne with the Governor’s
Office after the Resolution was adopted clarified that Converse County could not act on said
resolution due to Industrial Siting Commission (ISC) Rules which require zoning, and zoning is
something that the people of Converse County are not interested in. Without zoning, the
Commission does not possess the legal authority or ability to provide the public with a greater
voice in these types of activities. Further, Resolution 05-26 was not written for one specific
project; rather, the intent was to close a loophole and give people a voice beyond our subdivision
rules and including the ISC process, although the ISC process does require a public hearing for
both the Commission and the ISC. With the opinion from the Attorney General’s Office that we
cannot provide this mechanism without adopted zoning regulations in place, along with the
concurrence of the County Attorney that this is indeed the case, the County will have to find
another way to provide a more robust public process. Wyoming Statute 9-20-202 authorizes the
Commissioners the ability to nominate an industrial sovereign zone via a resolution. However,
after review of the language that was ultimately adopted as Resolution 05-26, the ISC added the
words “…counties with zoning…” which results in Converse County not being able to comply
with state law. No applications have been filed with or received by the County for an Industrial
Park, so rescinding Resolution 05-26 does not cause harm to any entity. However, the intention
of providing a platform for more public participation has been effectively removed. Wyoming
Statutes 18-5-301 through 319, which are subdivision regulatory statutes, allow for subdivision
regulation changes which require a public hearing with the Commission and further states that
when an application for a large subdivision is received by the County, and that application meets
all subdivision requirements, it must be approved by the Commission. Usage of the subdivision,
including industrial usage, is not a condition of approval or denial. No further discussion and
motion carried.
The regular meeting adjourned at 5:10 p.m.
A regular meeting of this Board will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 2 and 3,
2026, at 8:00 a.m., unless otherwise posted, at the Converse County Courthouse within
Commission Chambers, located at 107 N. 5th Street, Douglas, Wyoming. The public is invited to
attend. To get on the agenda, call the Clerk’s Office by the Thursday before the meeting. Per W.S.
§18-3-516(f), access to county information can be obtained at www.conversecountywy.gov or by

ATTACHMENT A - OneWyo Opioid Settlement MOA

OneWyo Opioid Settlement
Memorandum of Agreement
Whereas, Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants have contributed to the opioid
epidemic, which has in turn harmed the people and communities of the State of Wyoming.
Whereas, the State of Wyoming, through its Attorney General, and certain
Participating Local Governments are separately engaged in investigation, litigation, and
settlement discussions seeking to hold Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants accountable
for the damage they have caused in Wyoming.
Whereas, other Participating Local Governments, while not engaged in separate
litigation, have supported the State's efforts in the legal fight against the opioid crisis.
Whereas, the State and all Participating Local Governments share a common desire to
abate and alleviate the impacts of the Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants' misconduct
throughout the State of Wyoming.
Whereas, jointly approaching Settlements with Pharmaceutical Supply Chain
Participants benefits all Parties by improving the likelihood of successful Settlement and
maximizing the recovery from any such Settlement.
Whereas, specifically, the State and Participating Local Governments anticipate that
Settlements with major Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants will take the form of a
national resolution (National Settlement Agreement) and Wyoming's share of any such
resolution will be maximized only if Wyoming's political subdivisions of a certain size
participate in the National Settlement.
Whereas, the State and Participating Local Governments intend this agreement to
facilitate their compliance with the terms of any National Settlement Agreement.
Whereas, the State and Participating Local Governments anticipate that the National
Settlement Agreement will provide a default allocation between each state and its political
subdivisions unless they enter into a state-specific agreement regarding the distribution and
use of payments (State-Subdivision Agreement).
Whereas, the State and Participating Local Governments intend this agreement to
serves as a State-Subdivision Agreement under any Settlement.
Whereas, the aforementioned investigation and litigation have caused some
Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants to declare bankruptcy, and they may cause
additional Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Participants to declare bankruptcy in the future.
