Question:

Why is the mayor of Laramie not trying to bring in more business to the city?

Answer:

"In January 2017, the City of Laramie contracted with the retail recruitment and development  firm of The Retail Coach to help expand our existing retailer business, as well as attract new retailer businesses to the community. Last month, Retail Coach Senior Vice President Aaron Farmer was in Laramie on his fourth visit to the community. During this time, Mr. Farmer presented city council members with the results of their preliminary findings on Laramie's retail landscape, and to report on their targeted outreach efforts to specific developers and retailers.

Unfortunately, recruitment does not happen overnight, but we do believe there are promising results on the horizon."

Ask the City Of Laramie is your chance to send the city that burning question that you have always wondered about such as: “Where can I get a city parking permit?” or “Why did my water usage rates go through the roof?”

Please note that the City of Laramie will answer as many questions as possible at their discretion.
