The County extends their congratulations and best wishes to two long-time employees on their recent retirement. Clark Mortimore served as County Coroner from 1959 - 2010. Jim Skelton started as County Commissioner in 1985, and finished his career as Road & Bridge Foreman in 2010. The dedication and loyalty of these men will make them very difficult to replace.
Groundbreaking ceremonies for a new Government Annex/Public Health Building took place on July 8th, 2009. Construction is expected to be complete by February 17th, 2010. Dedication ceremonies will take place on April 16, 2010.

The airport was closed from September 3, 2009 until September 9th for crack repairs. The surface was coated with a coal tar rejuvenator, and new stripes were painted. As you can see from the photo below, the surface was in bad need of repair. The project was done by the County with help from WYDOT funds.  
Hot Springs County`s airport no longer meets FAA standards, so the County is investigating the possibility of relocating the airport. A draft environmental assessment has been completed on the present airport as well as two additional sites. A public hearing was held on Wednesday, November 4th at 6:00 p.m. at the Hot Springs County School District Auditorium at 415 Springview Street. Links to the Enviroment Assessment are listed below.
