Jackson Council to discuss Bear Conflict Zone boundary changes at April 20 workshop

Jackson’s Town Council is scheduled to discuss “Potential Changes to Bear Conflict Zone” during its April 20 workshop (1:30–4:30 p.m.), with the item allotted 60 minutes and open for public comment, according to the Town Council Workshop Agenda Packet.

The workshop packet lists Public Works staff as presenters for other agenda items, but does not include a staff report, map, or description of which areas would be added to or removed from the existing zone, nor any proposed effective date for changes, in the version of the packet on file (Town Council Workshop Agenda Packet).

The Bear Conflict Zone is the town’s regulatory area for bear-attractant requirements (such as trash storage and related enforcement). Residents who want to weigh in can participate in person or via Zoom; written comments can also be emailed to electedofficials@jacksonwy.gov, per the workshop notice in the packet.
