Gillette Wyoming Blog

City of Gillette Mayor, Duane Evenson, supports a Wyoming Wind Energy Tax in his latest blog post.  Due to recent wind energy development projects in Campbell County, he expresses the need for Wyoming to treat all energy producers equally and not support unfair competition in the energy market.

The state Joint Revenue Committee voted against a tax on wind energy in November, and like Mayor Evenson, Governor Freudenthal supports a wind energy excise tax.  What are your thoughts?  Please post a comment and share your view on whether wind energy should be taxed differently than coal-fired plants and other electricity producers.

What does that mean to you if you were to save that money instead of spending it on a car? Well, millions of dollars by retirement! But you need to see this to really understand what this could mean to you financially. You just have to SEE it to believe it. Nothing for sale here.
