JH Travel & Tourism board interviewed ED candidates in March 11-12 special meetings

The Jackson Hole Travel & Tourism Joint Powers Board (JHTTB) held special meetings on March 11 and March 12, 2026 to interview candidates for the board’s executive director position, according to the posted special-meeting agendas and minutes. The March 11 agenda scheduled two interviews (Candidate 1 and Candidate 2) and included time for public comment, but no action items. See: Lodging Tax Board Meeting Special Meeting Agenda (2026-03-11) and Special Meeting Agenda.

In the March 11 minutes, the board recorded that it interviewed Candidate 1 from about 1:05–1:50 p.m., and noted Candidate 2 “may choose to interview the following day” (March 12) pending confirmation. See: Special Meeting Agenda.

The March 12 agenda scheduled interviews for Candidate 3 and Candidate 4, followed by an executive session under Wyoming’s open meetings law personnel exception (W.S. §16-4-405(a)(ii)) to discuss hiring, and then a motion to proceed with the outcome discussed in executive session. The approved minutes show the board voted 6-0 to enter executive session and returned to open session at 2:30 p.m., but the minutes do not record any hiring decision or the outcome of the post-executive-session motion.
