Teton County commissioners are set to approve a 2026-2031 North Jackson snow removal contract with Ridgeline Excavation at $86,337.71 for year one, then annual Wyoming cost-of-living adjustments.
Teton County commissioners are set to approve a 2026-2031 North Jackson Snow Removal Project contract with Ridgeline Excavation, Inc., starting at $86,337.71 for the first season, then rising (or falling) each year with the Second Quarter Wyoming Cost of Living Index.

The staff report says the Road and Levee Department looked at doing the work in-house, but concluded the capital costs (equipment, storage, sand, staffing) make contracting the “better fiscal option.” Staff also highlight the county’s recent market problem: other road snow-removal bids jumped about 85% on average, so the county negotiated with Ridgeline, which committed to a 0% increase for year one. staff report and contract
