Wyoming § 15-1-506

• Jurisdiction: Wyoming
• Title 15: Cities and Towns
• Ch. 1: GENERAL PROVISIONS
• Art. 5: PLANNING

Text

(a) If the governing body has adopted the master plan or
any part thereof, no street, park or other public way, ground,
place or space, public building or structure or public utility,
whether publicly or privately owned, may be constructed until
its location and extent conform to the plan and have been
approved by the commission. If disapproved, the commission
shall communicate its reasons to the governing body which by a
vote of not less than a majority of its membership may overrule
the disapproval. If overruled, the governing body or the
appropriate board or officer may proceed. However, if the
public way, ground, place, space, building, structure or utility
is one which the governing body, or other body or official of
the municipality may not authorize or finance, then the
submission to the commission shall be by the board or official
having that jurisdiction, and the commission's disapproval may
be overruled by that board by a majority vote or by that
official. The acceptance, widening, removal, extension,
relocating, narrowing, vacation, abandonment, change of use,
acquisition of land for, or sale or lease of any street or other
public way, ground, place, property or structure may be
similarly overruled.
(b) If the commission fails to act within thirty (30) days
after the proposal has been submitted to it, the proposal is
deemed approved, unless a longer period is granted by the
governing body or other submitting body, board or official.
