The increase request will be used for further training and education for the Board and staff, training to assist county officials, and travel in and out of state for participation in conferences or other tax matters impacting Wyoming and its citizens. The Board recently hired a new statistician, who has received some basic training since joining the Board in April 2012. However, he will require additional training with the upgraded version of CAMA, as well as appraisal training. The statistician will need to travel to the various counties to assist the assessors, as may be required. In the event of the necessity for equalization in one or more counties, the Board must have sufficient travel funds available to hold the statutorily required hearings in the effected counties.
